Jin Wan (ID: 0000003fa5aa2c16) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 09/07/2023 I am absolutely sick of greedy Adobe Reader constantly asking for money for us to do the most basic of PDF editing. Thank God for PDF24 Creator. It is SO easy to use, SO user friendly, provides SO much more that Adobe's pitiful offering. And who wouldn't love a sheep mascot? I absolutely LOVE PDF24, and have used it time and time again. In my opinion, it's the BEST PDF Creator / Editor out there. I'm surprised it's free, to be honest, what an awesome app. I've downloaded a desktop version which I use most.
