Overall Satisfaction with Foxit PDF SDK

Our company uses the Foxit PDF SDK to work with PDF files. I collaborate with the production and manufacturing teams on various scripts, program material, and plan sheets. We mostly work with Word Docs, which we then convert to PDF after a project is completed. We may use the Foxit PDF SDK to add initials, annotations, and remarks, as well as interact with multiple files. We use Foxit to convert photos into pdfs in addition to papers. In actuality, it is a useful tool that performs admirably for us.
  • It offers excellent text handling.It's simple to add rapid markup.
  • It allows you to encrypt your data and set passwords for more protection.
  • Customization for web plugins are available.
  • PDF editing is cumbersome, and producing new PDFs from scratch is time-consuming.
  • It doesn't always do a good job at compressing files.
  • Secured digital signature.
  • Email and web integration.
  • It has saved time in converting PDF files.

Would you buy Foxit PDF SDK again?

Yes

The issue with the application not re-opening previously opened files is a major one for me, therefore I docked a point for that . When editing documents, it usually works well, but there are a few idiosyncrasies, such as the ability to add an extra line when changing a block of text or the inability to define page margins on the left and right. These peculiarities do not bother me, although they might be improved.

This program does an excellent job of securing PDF files. Its encryption guarantees that my private documents are kept safe. Those materials are simple to send by email. It's also useful for adding signatures to documents. It assists the user in avoiding the unneeded printing of that document for the sole purpose of signing.

Foxit PDF SDK Support

I'd give it this grade since I've never had to contact customer service
about Foxit PDF SDK or anything else I've tried to accomplish with the
product. As I previously stated, it is really user-friendly and simple
to navigate. I believe that the application itself provides assistance
to the client because it is so user-friendly and has a simple UI.
ProsCons
Problems get solved
No escalation required
Support cares about my success
Slow Initial Response
As we wanted to implement our signatures, we needed to buy premium plan.

Using Foxit PDF SDK

Our whole takeoff department uses the Foxit PDF SDK. To read plan files, produce pdf files, and take notes, we utilize it in conjunction with other tools. We may utilize the Foxit PDF SDK to read, edit, markup, print, and produce PDF files for internal use or to distribute to clients. Some of our users adore the software, but others choose to use alternative programs because they believe Foxit PDF SDK is too restrictive.
