Apart from the traditional software we deploy in News Room, News channels and broadcasting companies like us often rely on PDF documents for our scripts. With Foxit PDF Editor, news scripts can be easily edited and customized as per the requirements. Sub-Editors allows Editors to add annotations and comments to PDF documents. This feature can be helpful in providing feedback, making notes, or highlighting important sections of a news script.

We use Foxit PhantomPDF mainly for all of our office personnel. It is used by just about all of our departments. It is mainly used for both filling and creating fillable PDF forms. As well as viewing various PDF files. It’s very user-friendly, and I get fewer support requests for Foxit mainly due to its ease of use.

I use Foxit PDF editor to edit and create PDFs. It's much easier than Adobe or other PDF software I've used. It's also much easier to comment and edit PDFs, get signatures, etc. It can be collaborative if necessary which is helpful when sharing a project amongst team members. We also can use it for secure documents with protection for important work agreements and contracts.

We use Foxit for all of the scanned and secured documents for our loan applications, with supporting documents. In our attempt to go "paperless" we use thousands of scanned copies that have to be securely sent to closings, banks, and other financial institutions, and it does a very good job of doing so.

We needed a solution for a few departments which will be able to: - create dynamic forms with prefilled values; - apply signatures on PDF files; - split PDF files by pages; - combine PDF files; - reduce PDF files to meet scan limits; The solution helped to reduce time in processing PDF edit.

Foxit PDF Editor (FoxitPhantom) is used through our entire firm. We are able to combine a number of documents into one, extract certain pages from a document, and convert word documents into PDF. This is essential as PDF documents are protected and cannot be altered as easy at Microsoft word documents. Foxit PDF Editor (FoxitPhantom) also allows our firm the ability to send confidential documents that are password protected.

FoxitPhantom PDF is being used to notarize documents, editing, converting of documents, and viewing of documents. It is being used across the whole organization. It is solving the problem of creating PDF documents and makes it an easier process, especially when sending the documents to the scanner.

FoxitPhantom PDF is being used by part of the organization. Some of the organization uses Foxit and some of the organization uses [Adobe]. I've used both and I would say FoxitPhantom PDF is a good alternative for the organizations that need to be more price-conscious. There are a lot of the features that are needed through FoxitPhantom such as digital signatures, editing PDF documents, and making fillable forms.

FoxitPhantom PDF is the go to PDF editing software we use. At least half of the company uses this product. This is a very solid piece of software at a reasonable price point. This is a great alternative to high cost software like Adobe or Bluebeam. We have had good results with Foxit.

I use FoxItPhantom PDF exclusively for saving and editing PDFs. I've recommended it to colleagues. Our company has not mandated a PDF standard. For me, the program allows me to easily and readily edit PDF content and append a PDF file with other files. It performs so much more rapidly than Adobe.

We use FoxitPhantom PDF in our marketing department because it provides many great features and it is also available at a very affordable price. One of the great features that I like about it is the OCR. We usually receive a lot of hard copies surveys that we use for our marketing research and the OCR helps us to convert them to a fully editable word doc or excel that we can use right away for our work.

We are using the FoxitPhantom PDF editor software throughout almost every line of business and department. From time to time, we need to either edit or create PDF files, and the FoxitPhandom PDF editor allows us a convenient and affordable way to accomplish precisely that. We use the Foxit PDF reader as part of our standard computer image.

We us FoxitPhantom during our lease abstracting process. Clients send us their leases and in turn, we abstract them into our application. Helping our clients requires us to convert the file format to a Word document. In the past, we used Adobe Acrobat which presented a lot of challenges when converting from a PDF format to Word. With FoxitPhantom, our issues simply went away.

FoxitPhantom PDF was rolled out organization-wide to replace Adobe Acrobat and achieve significant cost savings. Most in the organization need a simple PDF reader and this tool does the job. Some groups within the organization insisted on keeping Adobe (i.e compliance, legal, marketing) due to higher than average document review and redlining, but the compatibility between the two tools is not perfect.

FoxitPhantom PDF is being used throughout my organization. It is being used to view, edit, protect, covert, merge and annotate PDFs. It has come in handy especially when converting documents from PDF to Excel and vice versa. When looking for software that provided all these powerful features, this came in at the lowest cost.

All of our corporate departments use FoxitPhantom and I personally use it on a daily basis. We made the switch from a similar software a few years ago and the transition was fairly seamless. FoxitPhantom can do everything that I need it to do; print straight to pdf, merge documents, highlight, comment, rearrange pages, extract pages, add watermarks, and password protect. This software has been vital in our transition to become "paperless".

Bloomstar is an organization with 350+ employees in four locations across Canada.
During the last year we have been updating our software and now we use Foxit as our default software to manage PDF documents.
Foxit Reader has the feeling of a full PDF software and is intuitive and friendlier than other PDF readers. The Phantom version offers all the capabilities of editing, signing documents, sharing, presentations, etc. However, it is still in the transition stage where some users have a local license of a different PDF editor but soon will be using Foxit Phantom too.
Document filing and storage is probably the most common use of Foxit at Bloomstar, especially related to human resources where all employees documents are now filed electronically. In our industry there are a lot of new seasonal hires during floral holidays and using a friendly PDF tool to manage the employees files is very convenient.

Foxit Phantom PDF is used by our organization to read, highlight, comment and edit documents for users to read online and manually. It is used across all departments in our organization it is easy to use and install and does not require any technical skills for one to operate.

It is being used across the organization as our PDF editor of choice. It allows us to edit PDFs in a simple, easy to use manner, but more importantly it cut down on costs associated with having expensive Adobe Acrobat licensing.

We replaced the standard Adobe Acrobat with Foxit when we were faced with purchasing a new Adobe license a few years ago. Since converting our first user, we've never looked back. Our whole organization now utilizes FoxIt, and the experience is far superior to Acrobat. The ability to have tabbed instances, the word recognition, highlighting, etc... just everything is easier. There are so many options, too - so each user gets to do what they want how they want.
