Categories & Use Cases

The easiest PDF editor you’ll use

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

PDFEscape was used to edit already made PDFs with ease by simply uploading and editing. The whiteout and text tools come in handy for basic editing. After use, downloading is just as simple. It was also used to fill in pdf forms for my organization, like contact forms and applications.

Pros

  • It is free with little to no limits.
  • Has plenty of tools for editing.
  • The text tool is customizable for font and size.

Cons

  • The upload document function often gives an error message at first upload and you have to go back to the main page to upload again.
  • A mimic font and text size tool would be of benefit.
  • The whiteout tool is a white box and not a pen, which could be easier.

Most Important Features

  • Form filler
  • Whiteout tool
  • Text tool

Return on Investment

  • PDFEscape has saved money for the organization since it is free.
  • Timesaver
  • Ease of use (no training)
