My PDF Studio Review

Klaus D. Karner | TrustRadius Reviewer

I use PDF Studio to generate engineering documents that I do in the laboratory.
I can append schematics to the document as well as make changes to it. I also use it for text recognition of old engineering books which we digitize.
  • Text recognition.
  • Edit/fill PDF forms.
  • I would like to be able to generate indexes of the documents that I am adding to a file.
  • To be able to scan a file and convert it from a PDF simply having the scan parameters.
For Linux users it is without a doubt the best option and the most developed so far.
  • Not having to move the files to a windows PC and have to edit a PDF.
  • Have access to a simple way to generate and edit PDF files.
For Linux, the user interface and its tools are very well developed and it is the most complete option.
As I answered before, the graphical interface is the best developed of the options that exist for Linux.

Using PDF Studio when I need to delete pages in a PDF or add comments is so simple with PDF Studio. I appreciate how everything is included at a one-time cost, which eliminates the need to buy other software or add-ons to achieve the desired output and be able to be open by others using many different types of PDF software.
  • Editing PDF pages easily.
  • Organizing PDF pages quickly.
  • Adding comments to particular items within a PDF.
  • Boot Time is inconsistent (very rare).
  • Different color schemes.
  • Keyboard shortcut adjustments in preferences.
PDF Studio is great for slimming down documents when a customer sends a large PDF (RFQ). Often time when performing a task at my job customers will send a request for quotes and the document sent will not be sorted and will just have all of the information they have been given by their customer with no particular order. Being able to easily search PDFs for certain words helps in speeding up my response time to the customer.
  • Allowed me to get a customer a quote faster.
  • Won business proposition due to the ability to organize and sort through customer documentation quickly.
The user interface is much easier to work with inside of PDF Studio as compared to Adobe Acrobat. Load time and ease of use is what made me select the product over Foxit Phantom PDF. The price for PDF Studio is extremely competitive and makes it the best alternative towards investing in Adobe or Phantom PDF.
Anytime I have had questions they have been able to be found in the forums of PDF Studio.
