TL;DR: Edit, convert, annotate, sign, merge, and manage PDFs without another recurring software bill. PDF Reader Pro gives you a full-featured PDF toolkit with a lifetime license for just $39.99 (MSRP $79.99).

PDFs are basically unavoidable at this point — contracts, invoices, forms, resumes, reports, receipts, you name it. What’s less unavoidable is paying a monthly fee every time you need to edit one. PDF Reader Pro cuts out the subscription cycle with a lifetime license that gives you the tools to edit, convert, annotate, organize, and sign PDFs in one place for $39.99 (MSRP $79.99).

PDF Reader Pro can edit text and images directly in a document, insert or replace content, and use bookmarks, search, and night mode to make long reading sessions easier. Markup tools let you highlight, strike out, underline, and comment right on the page.

The app also lets you rearrange pages, merge or split files, rotate, crop, or delete pages, and batch add watermarks, headers, and footers. A batch compressor and encryptor help shrink and protect groups of files at once, and password protection keeps sensitive documents locked down.

For more advanced work, there are tools to create fillable forms with text fields, buttons, radio buttons, and combo boxes. OCR support lets you extract text and turn scanned pages into editable, searchable PDFs, which cuts down on manual typing. You can fill and sign forms, use redaction to permanently block sensitive text, and apply a digital signature that verifies identity and intent.

Right now, it’s only $39.99 to get a PDF Reader Pro lifetime license for Macs.
