If you do work on a computer, you have to reckon with PDFs, the go-to format for documents of all kinds. As ubiquitous as PDFs are, they’re also universally tough to edit or convert unless you’ve got an app like PDFpen to unlock it. This is software that makes it easy to merge, markup, convert using OCR, and more, and right now, you can get PDFpen 8 for $37 at Cult of Mac Deals.

Without this kind of app, a typo in a PDF might as well be behind bulletproof glass. But with PDFpen, you can easily fill out forms, sign documents, edit text, and more, even without the original document. You can even create fully editable PDFs out of scans or photos of text, which are converted using a simple OCR tool. Cloud storage and editing, exports to Microsoft Word format, redaction tools, Dropbox sync for iPad and iPhone, search and replace functions — this is a great way to get under the hood of today’s most common document type.

Buy now: Get PDFpen 8 for just $37, that’s half off the usual price.
