One of the most widely used file formats out there is PDF, due to its numerous advantages. Not that it is cross-platform, but it also is compact, secure and ensures graphic integrity, displaying the content exactly the same regardless of the device it is viewed on.
Manipulating PDF files requires dedicated tools and, aside from the popular names, there are also editors and viewers that might just catch our attention, given their feature set. PDF Assist is one example and reading on will surely explain why.
PDF Assist is a full-featured PDF manipulation tool that not only works as a PDF viewer, but also comes with options to annotate a document, organize pages, hide sensitive content or encrypt a file altogether, convert, merge and split PDF files. While not an editor, it comes with a plethora of other functions that might be of great help when dealing with content shared in PDF format.
Annotation and redaction of sensitive content
The available annotation tools enable you to highlight important content in the text, underline, strikethrough and markup text sections. A generous collection of predefined shapes and stamps is available for you to overlay onto the document’s pages, while the free hand drawing tool makes it possible to draw the viewer’s attention to a particular area in the document. Moreover, sticky notes can be attached to the document to write down important observations, much like comments, but a bit more visible.
Sensitive content inside a PDF file can be redacted and completely removed, if needed. PDF Assist uses custom overlay text to automatically conceal common areas such as phone numbers, dates, NI numbers, tax references, and so on.
Merge, split, convert and protect PDF files
Not only can PDF Assist be used for manipulating the contents of a PDF file, but it also comes with options to work with the document itself. It features options to merge and split documents, as well as an integrated converter that comes with support for various other formats. You can use the latter to convert to and from PDF format.
Since sometimes PDF documents include images, developers of PDF Assist integrated an OCR module inside PDF Assist. This way, you can easily extract text from a document that only contains pictures, and save the output to PDF or text.
