"For Cropping - Poor Product"
Version: PDFill Free PDF Tools 9.0
Pros
It does at least produce a pdf that looks like it's been cropped (and it's free).
Cons
Very difficult to use, requires trial and error.
Doesn't actually crop the pdf - open in a vector image program and the rest of the pdf is still visible.Summary
I only wanted this for cropping pdfs, so this is a review of that feature only.
It's very difficult to use - there is no graphic interface where you select the secion you want to crop, instead there are four boxes where you type in the distance from the margin you want the crop box to be. So you have to guess, and apply trial and error to get it right.
I was cropping a pdf so I could open in a vector editor, as uncropped it was too large. But when you open it, it's only the visible area that has been cropped, the rest of the pdf is still visible outside. -

"Quick and Easy PDF Splitter"
Version: PDFill Free PDF Tools 9.0
Pros
Only used it to split PDFS, quick and easy!
Cons
none so far

"Cannot opt out of the toolbar that does something"
Version: PDFill Free PDF Tools 9.0
Pros
Works OK, does the job.
Cons
Installs without permission and without an opt-out option a browser toolbar that imposes a heavy and continuous load on the CPU, and it is difficult to get rid of. What is it doing while loading the CPU?
Summary
I would not have loaded this application if I knew about the toolbar.

"It does what it says quickly, cleanly, accurately"
Version: PDFill Free PDF Tools 9.0
Pros
It perfomrs operations accurately
It is very fastCons
Haven't found any. The interface is not as bad as some seem to think. If you can handle a cell phone you should be able to handle this with ease.
Summary
Fast, accurate, correct. I tried several other utilities, including some very expensive ones. This one is the best I've seen so far.

"Fabulous, I am now the master of my PDF files!"
Version: PDFill Free PDF Tools 9.0
Pros
Upon opening PDFill you get a page with 15 straight forward options, e.g. 1. Merge PDF Files, 2. Split or Reorder pages, etc. So far I've only used #1, dragged in a bunch of single page PDF scans, reordered them and instantly got a single PDF file.
Cons
None at all for what I've used so far. Some of the options like 15. Create Transparent Image were over my head, but that is because of my limited PDF use. In other words PDF experts will be delighted and I'll bet there is more in the pro version.
Summary
Whether you are a casual PDF file user like me or a PDF expert, this beauty of a program is a must!

Cons
You can't control font size in the text boxes.
Summary
A faster and more secure alternative to Adobe.

"Does what it's supposed to"
Version: PDFill Free PDF Tools 9.0
Pros
Lots of options
The ones I've tried are easy to use once you figure outCons
It's not intuitive to say the least.
Help is not really adequate. You need to explore to figure out how to do thingsSummary
If they provided more help or instructions, it would be an excellent program for the price
