Hi All,
I have just changed my laptop. I used to have full Adobe 8 on the old one but cant find the key now for the new on.

Can anyone recommend one of the free to download ones please?

I need to annotate, comment, highlight etc. etc.

TIA

I have Adobe Acrobat Reader DC on my machine and I can comment, highlight and insert text ... that's about it ... I don't think you can edit or delete existing text or insert and remove pages ... but if that's all you need, then it should be OK.

Thanks but I do need to remove and add pages, create from multiple files etc too.

Version 8 is about ten years old. You'd be lucky if that key still worked.

If you're looking for the "full" set of features, you're better off purchasing another license (subscription based)

A good alternative is Foxit Reader (I've only ever used the free version).

Depending on how intricate the editing you need to do AbleWord might suit. Have a look at www.ableword.net

Nitro 9 is another 15 day trial, Adobe acrobat is the better choice I think. But expensive

Foxit phantom :

Nitro9 look very like Foxit + a few $$$

Thank you everyone. I think the Phantom Foxit Pro looks to meet my needs the best. Nothing is free any more is it?!!

I am looking for a PDF editor. The usual one has monthly charge. Any free or once off PDF editor available?
