  What our costumers say about PDF-XChange

What our costumers say about PDF-XChange

It only took a few minutes to order the key and to receive it. I really liked the fact that you sent links in this E-mail, which led to frequently upcoming questions regarding the installation process. Thanks therefore :)  PDF-XChange is an excellent alternative to Acrobat and I use it daily. The installation offers several options and doesn't lack any useful or necessary hints and notes. THAT's the way, which such programs gotta be like! Not to mention the incomparable low price. - Markus Gantner
Thumbs up, I would say. I transfered the money on Thursday and already on the next day, Friday, the license key was sent to me. It doesn't get better or quicker! I really appreciate this. The same with the program. I was searching for an alternative for Adobe and found the PDFXChange Viewer. This program offers all the tools I need, it is quick, and the price is nice. After all, a very good deal for me. – Jürgen Orbat
I knew what would await me, because I already knew PDF-XChange. But what really surprised me was how quick and smooth the process from ordering the license key and receiving the delivery went. I expected to get it in a few days but it was just a matter of minutes. You really have a top service. That's the way it's gotta be :) – Christoph Marx
That's what I call a role model for every customer service. Thanks a lot for the second license key. According to my impressions so far, the PDF Xchange is every bit the fine peace of software like Acrobat is – and it is way cheaper ;-) - Jörg Zielasek
I really enjoy the fact that it is not only possible to view PDF-documents. The program can also be used to make commentaries or to convert documents in Word in order to edit and copy them with great ease. That made it by far easier for me to work on my documents for a seminar. This program is just fantastic!!!! – Stefan Bonifer
An attractive price, quick processing time and a good user interface. – Jörg Zielasek
I had bought myself some Helvetica-style fonts. But even with an expensive PDF-Converter those fonts weren't displayed at all. And an other program did display them, but not in a proper way. Everything, what was fat printed, was displayed with different color intensity. The result wasn't exactly what I wanted and was rather hard on the eye.... But with this PDF X-Change-program everything was perfect and it was just a matter of a few clicks! The display was clean and exactly what it was supposed to be – even with a complex format and pictures. Thumbs up, that's the way I like to work. Thanks also for the really kind and good support after I already had bought the program. That enabled me to discover the value and the possibilities of the program to a high degree in short time. - Eveline Hafner Beck
I am still speechless!! Adobe is nothing compared to that. Very easy to work with this program. – Ewald Witzke
I especially enjoyed the fact that the PDFs can be converted out of any program and that the required data size is amazingly small. - private
I picked the PDF-Xchange up by chance and I can really ensure that it is a supreme tool for converting PDFs back and forth. A real alternative to the classic Acrobat from Adobe. With kind regards - Peter Schietz
The application offers many possibilities to optimize itself. None of those possibilities really requires much of an expertise. The program is really intuitive to use. It offers good ways of converting data with slender results. – Eugen Schwitter
Quick, solid and reliable. It needs way less disk space than Adobe's Acrobat. – Jens-Uwe Weiland
What I really like about PDF X-Change is that all the commonly used tools are included and especially that the settings for resolution can be edited in the very first window. They aren't hidden anywhere in the second or third sub-window. The program is just user-friendly. The online tutorials made it even easier. – Klaus Köppel
