Hi all,

has anyone experience with Adobe Acrobat Reader and/or PDF Reader Pro?

I am looking for a pdf editing software.

While I have worked with Adobe it seems a lot more expensive than PDF Reader Pro (which was recommended to me by a friend with a MAC).

I have a Mac Book Pro (OS Big Sur).

Would be immensely grateful for advice.

Adobe Arcobat Reader is a free

PDF reader | Adobe Acrobat Reader DC

there are many—

Preview is a baked in PDF reader on the macOS— it has been gutted over the years; not a true pdf editor

personally I use PDFpen

Acrobat Reader is not pdf editing software. I'm guessing by the name, neither is PDF Reader Pro (but I could be wrong). If you want to actually edit pdfs, you'll need something like Adobe Acrobat Pro DC. I use it daily for work and find it very satisfactory. It's not cheap but what it saves me in time and frustration is, as they say, priceless.

Both have free reader versions you can use for evaluating each platform to some extent.

I stopped use anything Adobe years ago, mostly because the footprints were enormous, at least on Windows, and its cost for the paid versions was exceeded only by its hype.
