PDFelement
Summary
PDFelement makes it easy to create, edit, highlight, and convert any PDF files. The ability to create advanced PDF forms from paper forms or other documents is a huge plus. So is the ability to edit entire blocks of text, rather than just line by line, and convert a PDF to Word or PPT format. The product feels capable, stable, and surprisingly easy-to-use.

There is nothing more important for a company or business than to be able to rely on the safe and faithful transmission of information between its workers. PDF documents are used on a large scale today to share information that combines text with images, such as scans, graphs, and tables.
If you still do not have a program on your computer that allows you to open, read, and edit these types of documents, or you have one that does not satisfy you, then here is an excellent alternative: The Wondershare’s PDF element.
This program is useful for individual use by researchers or students, but is most useful when applied at a business level, as it includes several tools aimed at improving communication and efficiency among a team.
Join me in this PDF element Review to learn about the best benefits of this software and how to get the most out of it.
Features to promote teamwork
With PDF element nothing is left uncorrected, uncommented, or undiscussed. This powerful PDF file processing program offers a complete set of tools to make comments and corrections throughout the document. You can add text boxes, notes, shapes, typewriter, text underline, stamps, cross-out, highlight, among others.
These comments and suggestions are non-destructive, i.e. they do not directly affect the content of the document, but are stored within the archive and can be reviewed by anyone who has access to the document.
And who has access to the document? The PDF element program also offers several advances concerning the security of PDF files. It includes several tools to censor sensitive information that cannot be shared, and to apply passwords or permissions to protect the documents from printing, copying, or making changes.
Other outstanding features
Although there is much similarity between the many PDF editing programs, PDF element offers certain tools that are worth highlighting:
- Tab with frequently opened PDF files to quick access.
- Quick search for words and phrases to correct or replace.
- Create documents from scratch.
- Among the editing options, you can move, cut, delete, copy, paste, insert new text and images, highlight, underline, move images, among others.
- Convert PDFs to office, retaining layout, formatting, and tables.
- Special tools to place and agree on the signatures between partners.
PDFelement Review | System Requirements
This PDF editing software is available for both operating systems Windows and macOS, and the system requirements are no big deal. This is what you need to install PDF element in Windows:
- Windows 10, 8.1, 8, 7, Vista
- Intel® Pentium® 4, higher, or equivalent processor
- 512 MB of memory (RAM), 1 GB recommended
- 1.5GB of free hard disk space for application files
- Web access needed for product registration, activation, product help, and obtaining live updates for the program.
PDFelement Free trial version
As for any of the Wondershare software, you can get a free version of this software in the official PDF element website, but even though it offers all the features that you’ll find in the paid version, and that it will work during an unlimited time, there are some limitations you should be warned about:
- Every time you create, edit, or add a comment to any PDF file, it will be saved with a watermark. In the users’ guide they recommend that, while you use the free trial version, always take the precaution to save the document as a new file, and not to overwrite the file, because if you do so, you will lose the original copy which had no watermark.
- The batch process to extract data is restricted to only 2 files at a time.
- When you use the converting tool to create a Word, Excel, or another kind of document from a PDF, it will convert no more than 5 pages per document.
However, these limitations will not prevent you from testing all the features and tools of PDFelement. If you are attracted by the potential of this software for your work and projects, the next step is to subscribe to one of its annual payment plans or purchase the lifetime license. It’s not exactly the cheapest PDF editing program, but it promises to be worth the investment.
