If you want to work smoothly with PDF files, you need a capable tool like Kdan’s PDF Reader. The name may leave you thinking it just helps you read PDFs, but it actually does much more for your workflow.

With PDF Reader, you can create, read, edit, sign, scan, secure and convert PDFs on your iPhone, iPad or Mac. Learn more and download it below.

Kdan PDF Reader: All-in-one tool for iPhone, iPad or Mac

Whether you’re working with documents at home, at work or in a hybrid environment, Kdan’s PDF Reader strives to suit your needs.

The software makes it easy to work with PDFs on your iOS, iPadOS and macOS devices. Its consistent user interface across platforms makes the software intuitive to use on iPhone, iPad or Mac — or all three.

Intuitive design and easy reading

Kdan put all PDF Reader’s editing tools into eight main sections at the top of the app so you can easily access them.

Smooth page scrolling and advanced settings help you enjoy a comfortable reading experience. For example, you can shift the page background to day, night or “sepia” to relieve eye strain and view two PDF files side by side using the split-view window.

And you can use the slideshow mode to present your PDFs in an easily readable format.

Powerful document conversion

An OCR converter lets you easily turn images or scanned PDFs into searchable text, helping you capture information.

Plus, you can readily convert PDFs to and from various file formats with online and built-in converters. Then you can work with an editable document in Microsoft Office, .txt, HTML, .rtf, ePUB or MOBI formats. The converter can preserve tables and formatting for seamless editing, too.

Organize your documents

Keeping all your documents organized is normally no easy task, but PDF Reader makes it so. By storing documents digitally in PDF Reader, you’ll reduce clutter, control your workflow and use less paper.

Sign and fill PDF forms without printing

You can complete both fillable and non-interactive PDF forms, including applications and tax declarations, without having to print them. With the Mac version, you also can make existing PDFs fillable by adding form fields to them. And you can keep going paperless because you can sign contracts and agreements with your personal electronic signature.

Edit PDF text

PDF Reader makes editing text in PDFs about as easy editing in a Word document. You can directly edit, add or replace text content in PDFs.

And you can edit the font and size of the original text without leaving the PDF. (Note: Text editing is still in beta.)

Make PDFs secure

The app makes it easy to prevent unauthorized access to your PDF documents with strong passwords, watermarks and protected download links. Whether you’re a student or a professional, you can protect your files throughout your workflow with PDF Reader.
