Ratings and Reviews
Refreshing Change. Blows away the Cobwebs on Adobe XI
Been using Adobe XI for some years. Clunky, Ugly, Slow and to be quite honest sometimes tiresome to get round. But I suppose it did the job and has done it for the most part well. Now Adobe have announced end of life for their product and replaced with DC (Monthly Subscription) It was time to look again. I came across ExpertPDF in the App store and checked the ratings which were overall favourable. £55 is a lot of cash to splash on an app so I was Hmmming and Arghing and I thought oh what the hell so jumped in. What a refreshing change. Got to grips with the app in no time, literally minutes and absolutely love it. It is a joy. Early days but as of yet I can see nothing not to like. UI is a delight. I will be sure to post again should anything spring up and surprise me but at this point full marks for this app. It does everything I need it to do. Yes XI did just about everything but wash the pots but it was always totally overkill for me and as I said it served me well. I just used it because there was nothing else really I could see that would do the job. OCR would be something good to work on for the future Readdle. But no complaints here at this moment from me. Love it.
Does What it Needs to Do
I’ve long been a user of Adobe’s Acrobat Pro, needing just that little bit more than I could get from the free Reader or the basic version. I’ve used other pdf programs, too, though always returning to Acrobat as it just did its work easily and without fuss. My latest version was part of Adobe’s Creative Suite (5.5). I was tempted to try this OSX version when it came out with an early adopter discount. It does almost all I need and I’ve now got the full suite on my iPhone and iPad (the iOS Documents App is something I’ve sought for years as it’s great for keeping selected folders sync’d on my iPad).
What I missed most from Acrobat was the ability to booklet print; it’s available on my Brother laser printer’s driver under Windows but not on the Mac. Acrobat plugged that gap (and it’s something I use a lot for printing out multi-page documents for reference at meetings, etc.) Luckily, I’ve now found another App that provides that service so no loss. But I’ve found something else I miss from Acrobat - the ability to export a pdf to doc/docx. Luckily, I still have access to Acrobat for that, though not on my Mac (and I fear that a change of role will mean that access will not be for much longer). So, Readdle, you’ve been promising exciting new features...
Another good update
I came across PDF Expert by readdle and haven’t looked back it’s been an excellent alternative to the Adobe cash cow. The new update has added some convenient features which I’m using every day for work. However, even though I’m running version 2.4.1 which I purchased from the App Store and I think this is the latest version. I’m still not able to convert office documents into a pdf format. It's a great feature and seems to be in the one you buy directly from Readdle. I have contacted tech support about this and have been offered a license transfer to Readdle. However, I would like to stay with the App Store and was wondering when this feature is going to be available?
