PDF Studio is great for slimming down documents when a customer sends a large PDF (RFQ). Often time when performing a task at my job customers will send a request for quotes and the document sent will not be sorted and will just have all of the information they have been given by their customer with no particular order. Being able to easily search PDFs for certain words helps in speeding up my response time to the customer.
