When adding signatures or images i wish you could save as a different file and keep the editing window active. that way you can keep making edits. reason being the way it interprets image pixels versus word is different so you need multiple tries to get the sizes to match Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It is a simple and easy-to-use app. It more than fulfills what is needed and does exactly what it promises, without complications. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The interface is too minimalist, which could be a positive thing, but if you are not familiar with this style, it ends up making its use difficult. In my case, the learning curve feels quite steep. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

This program is a breath of fresh air after fighting with the OG PDF program for years. I am beyond grateful that this is designed and provided for free. All the features you need are present, without the complexity and paywalls of the one that shall not be named. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

So far, no downsides - I'm sure some features are locked, I just haven't run into that yet. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It's free. Among the "free" PDF apps this is probably the best, because it's lightweight, you don't need to worry about ads, and it has a lot of common features people want. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I've been told that you can edit and add signatures to PDF documents using PDFgear, but I was never able to find a way to do it.

If it was possible and EASY to add signatures to PDF documents using this app it could replace a lot of paid licenses for Adobe Acrobat Pro.

All the people used to Acrobat in a professional environment simply could not figure out how to do their work functions using this app, and I was unable to figure it out either to help them. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I've been working with Acrobat and PDF files since the mid-1990s. While I don’t use them daily, every time I do, it’s been a hassle—tools that used to be free now demand payment, others are bloated or missing the features I actually need.

PDF Gear is a breath of fresh air. It’s intuitive, reliable, and gets the job done without friction. The UI is clean, the functionality is solid, and I didn’t have to jump through hoops to complete my task.

I haven’t felt this genuinely grateful to discover a utility in years. If you’re tired of the PDF shuffle, this one’s worth your time Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
