Important Notes:
Some features indicated may be in a bundled application included rather than the actual named application. e.g. Mark-up & Commenting functions available with all versions of PDF-XChange/PDF-Tools are provided in the PDF-XChange Editor(free and PRO) - not in the Standard Printer or PDF-Tools applications directly.
We strongly advise all users to download and test the evaluation versions prior to purchase to avoid disappointment as refunds are only offered in the event serious and uncorrectable flaws are uncovered. All evaluation versions downloaded can be converted to licensed installations by simply re-installing the same download and inserting a legitimate serial number on request.
This product comparison chart is not an exhaustive list all features and functions - merely an indication of the minimum features provided within each product bundle available.
