- "Awesome PDF-editing tool"
- Reviewed on: May 5, 2009
- Version reviewed: PDFill PDF Tools Free 6.0
PDF files are a common format for most businesses today. However, altering and creating fresh PDFs remains a mystery for many people. PDFill PDF Tools hopes to make this process simpler with a number of options, but the busy interface may overwhelm less experienced users.
This freeware program has a cluttered interface that will take some studying and experimentation to master. However, all the elements serve a purpose, and many will look familiar to those who have used a word-processing program. The screen looks very much like Microsoft Word's display, with a ruler running down the side and familiar buttons for saving, creating, printing, and fonts along the top. Along the left side are a string of icons with tools for creating PDF-specific tools like check boxes, drop-down menus, radio buttons, and more. The right side of the screen features icons that help give PDFs a professional sheen, by sizing and balancing the page with various tools. Along the bottom are still more buttons; these allow users to do everything from drawing text boxes, highlighting text, or even adding videos.
PDFill allows users to alter existing PDFs or create documents from scratch. One of its most unique aspects is the helpful hints. When our test PDF opened, it contained no fillable fields and offered to show us how to create them. Boxes pop up regularly throughout and offer other helpful hints.
The only negative is PDFill's crowded interface. With all four sides covered in buttons, it can get overwhelming. However, with a little practice we think that anyone can create and alter PDFs using this excellent download.

Version: PDFill PDF Tools Free 6.0
Pros: I was looking for something that would rotate and crop PDF files so they'd display on my PMP (Archos). This does the job perfectly and does it fast.
Cons: None that I found.
Summary: Don't be scared off by the editor's complaint about the cluttered interface. It's MUCH better than nesting the functions in menus or cute buttons. You can easily find what you want to do and then do it. How is that a negative?

Pros: simple to use
Cons: although mergeing is real easy, other functions are somewhat complicated
Summary: Easily allows you to assemble, reorder and merge pdf files. Great if you have a wireless printer that will only scan one page at a time. Also, to clear it up, the Tools and Writer are free. Only the editor is a trail version. For most folks the tool... read more >>

Version: PDFill PDF Tools Free 6.0
Pros: Features are very hope fully
Cons: Not graphic interface
Summary: The tools for split, merge, etc. are completely free and work nicely, just you need to count pages to specify the operations... not very intuitive. I would recommend it.
