This GAOTD must be a brand new product since I've never heard about it before.

65% THUMBS UP after a few minutes time being published here seems to be fishy, taking into account that it doesn't even have the ability to extract/merge/delete pages, as well as open PDFs encrypted with user/owner passwords.

Not a great deal for a 40 $ app claiming to be a PDF EDITOR!!

There are many shareware out there which can do much more than this GAOTD for the same price and a couple of FREEWARE (see below) which are able to do what this GAOTD cannot.

In fact what this program can do is actually adding text with a new textbox, insert images, removing unwanted content, drawing lines etc... as any other FREEWARE IMAGE EDITOR out there can do for FREE, after turning any PDF into an IMAGE file!!

So overall I give it a THUMBS DOWN for wasting my time trying it (65% THUMBS UP?? Come on...LOL!!)!!

BEST FREE ALTERNATIVES??

Yes, ASHRAF is right: there is any FREEWARE out there able to edit PDF files.

But as far as I'm concerned this is NOT a big issue for me!!

Why?? Because the best way to edit a PDF file for FREE is actually to convert it to Word Format:

PDF ==> WORD

http://unipdf.com
http://www.pdfonline.com/pdf-to-word-converter (preserves hyperlinks)

What's the problem in doing that??

If the PDF is protected by an user/owner password, just use this magic FREE tool to open it:

http://www.appnimi.com/viewdownload/2-windows/10-appnimi-pdf-locker

Or better yet use this more comprehensive FREE GEM which can unlock not only PDFs encrypted with user/owner password but also zip,rar,xls and xlsx files, by using Brute Force algorithm and Dictionary method:

http://www.appnimi.com/viewdownload/2-windows/4-appnimi-all-in-one-password-unlocker

That being said, another way to edit any PDFs for FREE is also described here:

* Libre Office + Oracle PDF Import Extension

If what you need is instead just a FREE tool designed to add, remove, rotate, delete pages, modify encryption, add watermarks, extract individual pages, optimize PDF documents for web viewing etc..., then these two FREE tools are the right program for you:

http://www.pdfill.com/pdf_tools_free.html
http://www.avinashtech.com/computers/how-to-edit-pdf-files-and-documents-with-pdfedit995

The second tool is actually ADS supported....want to remove that ADS?

No problem....Giovanni has a (FREE) solution for you even in such a case:

Enjoy!!

The description is great. However, we have seen a lot of PDF programs recently, both here and elsewhere, and while some of them work OK, others are crappy. The problem is that changes made by most of these programs implement an additional layer that is not standardized, so the changes won't stick if you use the modified file in another PDF program. Perhaps the program works fine, but if the vendor is the same as PDFzilla, then there is bound to be room for improvement. Don't let your expectations run too high.
Thanks for the offer, as always.

OpenOffice/LibreOffice Writer opens PDF natively, and allow to modify them very nicely.
Do not see anything in this one that OOoW cant do.
