Editor's review
Free PDF editor is one free and handy PDF editing and creating software, help you create and make standard PDF documents in minutes, as one completely freeware from FreePDFEditor.net, it is free for any use.
Features: Free PDF editor is a small executable file that can create PDF files. It lets you edit and create these documents. No need for Acrobat Writer. No need for a printer to be installed either. The utility is a small executable that lets create the documents fast. No special skill needed to use the program either. No complex settings are required, nor are any knowledge of PDF related knowledge. This standalone executable can even work from a USB flash drive. The main interface is simple and easy to understand. You can insert text, image and shape, then drop, resize and move these PDF elements with your mouse to create the final document. The "Inert Text" is used to insert Text content to PDF documents. You can drop it to any position, and resize it to any size, then you can type or paste text content into the text box. Program provide some useful text format tools, you can change the PDF text fonts, color, text size, text style. Images can be handled as easily.. Supported formats are BMP, JPG/JPEG, GIF, PNG, ICO etc. You can use "Insert Rectangle" and "Insert Ellipse" to add some shapes in your PDF files, you can change the border size, border color, border style and fill color.
Overall: Though the impression is you could edit a PDF document, what you can really do is use this as an editor to create a PDF document. The shapes you can use are too limited. Just rectangle and ellipses does not make for much graphics capability.
This is not an "editor". This is only a creator.
It will not "edit" existing PDF files
I tried 1 page files, multipage files, and files with only oneword file names.
As a result FreePDFEditor does not do what it says.
If it cannot open it cannot edit.
Give this one a pass as it will not actually edit pre-existing PDF files, nor recognize the .pdf format reliably.
Nowadays you can easily create your own documents using Office applications (like Open Office`s Writer or MS Office`s Word) and generate a PDF using PDFCreator or any other PDF printer. The real deal is how do you do to edit an already existing PDF file - and this Free PDF Editor can`t edit anything, in that sense. Useless...
