I use Adobe Acrobat Pro DC. I can edit, merge, create PDFs by combining files, rotate, OCR, add/delete pages, add/delete text...

I have not doubt that it will be updated to match W11 as well.

I used Acrobat Pro DC at work, as well. It’s not the smoothest interface, but it does everything. I think it’s not cheap (subscription?). I think the only thing that Pro does that non-Pro does not is document comparison. Or maybe that’s what the “DC” stands for.

I didn’t realize there was a no DC version.

Is there a non-pro version that’s not free?

I only ask bc I’m pretty sure the free version is severely limited, so anyone who wants those functions will have to pay.

I have mine through work so I have no idea how much it is.

BTW I hate that everything now is a subscription model

Sorry, I forgot to specify “no Adobe Acrobat” … that would have been the obvious choice, except it’s quite resource intensive and is subscription based. Prefer a perpetual license with one time payment rather than subscription. Thanks.

I use the free version of FoxIT and have for years. There’s a paid version as well but I haven’t needed it.

Take a look at PDFILL. The free tools are good and the editor is $20 or free online.

Thanks for reminding me about Foxit. I used it myself years ago and will revisit it again. PDFILL is new to me, will check it out too. Thanks!
