Things No One Knows
There are many hidden features of PDF editors that most people don’t know about. At https://sites.google.com/view/foxit-softwareinc/home we will discuss some of the most useful ones. Most people only use a PDF editor to create or edit PDF files. However, these tools can do much more than that! We will cover a few of the hidden features in each of the popular PDF editors: Adobe Acrobat DC, Foxit PhantomPDF, and Nuance PowerPDF Advanced.
The first thing you should know is that PDF editors can be used to create PDF files from scratch. This is a great way to avoid the hassle of converting other file types into PDFs. All you need is a blank document and the software will do the rest! Adobe Acrobat DC even offers templates for common document types, such as resumes and contracts.
Another useful feature is the ability to OCR scanned documents. This means that you can convert images of text (such as scanned documents or images taken with your phone) into editable text. This can be a lifesaver if you need to edit a document but only have an image of it! Foxit PhantomPDF and Nuance PowerPDF Advanced both offer this feature.
Finally, did you know that you can use PDF editors to fill out forms? This is a great way to avoid having to print out a form, fill it out by hand, and then scan it back in. Simply open the form in your PDF editor and fill it in! Adobe Acrobat DC even lets you save the filled-out form so you can use it again later.
As you can see, there are many hidden features of PDF editors that most people don’t know about. We hope this blog post has helped you discover some new ones! If you have any questions or would like to share your own tips, feel free to leave a comment below.
