3 Best Free PDF Editor for Windows 10 in 2022

In daily office and study, PDF can be said to be one of the most used formats. Because of its portability, cross-device, ease of print, and other characteristics, it has a very wide range of applications. However, PDF faithfully reproduces every character, color, and image of the original file, which makes it difficult to edit. You will agree with me that it is hard to find the truly best and completely free PDF editor in the market. Most efficient PDF editors in the market cost highly. To figure it out, I have tested a variety of free PDF editors, by comparing their operations, editing tools, results, and uploading speed, then found the best free PDF editor for Windows 10 for you. They are:

Except for being able to edit PDFs with text, images, shapes, signs, links, highlighters, etc., it also allows you to merge PDFs, compress PDFs, delete pages from PDFs, etc. It also has the desktop version, but it is not for free.

And there are tool-specific limits for free users as well. In addition, its online version is still in beta, which means the converting result is not sure.
