Overall Satisfaction with Kofax Power PDF (formerly Nuance)

I am currently the only user that I know of. It helps to be able to edit documents.
  • Text editing.
  • Markup.
  • Document editing.
  • Auto select text to copy without converting document to text.
  • Converting document to text does not maintain current layout and adds additional lines.
  • It is a nice program for editing documents.
There are some hoops to jump through to get to what you want to do.
In terms of editing documents it works better like deleting unwanted pages, but in Reader DC it is easier to select text and copy text.
I have never used support.

It is hard to simply copy text from an open PDF. Other PDF readers let you select and copy text without opening the edit function.
