UPDF Reviews 686

the pdf editor is super cool. and I paid for the lifetime subscription. but after a week they charged me an anual subscription of something I didn't subscribed and never used!

“I have a paid UPDF license, but the Link Type field is not clickable and only Web Link appears. I’ve reinstalled, logged out/in, and used the official installer. Please refresh my license activation on your server.”

They know this issue — they’ve fixed it for other users.
YOU SUCK

UPDF is a well-designed and user-friendly PDF application that covers most everyday PDF needs. The software is fast, stable, and easy to work with, and it offers a clean interface for editing, annotating, and basic signing of documents.

For personal use and many professional tasks, UPDF is a solid and cost-effective alternative to more established PDF solutions.

My main area for improvement is that UPDF currently does not support cryptographic digital signatures (certificate-based / PKI). For users who rely on certificate-based signing workflows, this would be a valuable feature to have in the future.

Adding PKI-based digital signature support would further strengthen UPDF and make it even more versatile for advanced use cases.

Update - been using the program more. Still love it, and now my business buddy has bought it as well. Still would like the digital signature as a stamp on documents

Overall rating: 5 out of 5 stars.

J’ai longtemps hésité avant d’opter pour UPDF et je m’en félicite maintenant. Après quelques jours d’essai , on maîtrise bien les bases de ce logiciel. Mais je suis sûr que j’ai beaucoup à découvrir. Une saine expérience.

I have almost completely transitioned from Adobe PDF to UPDF on most of my devices! It has saved me hundreds of dollars from my subscription to Adobe Pro and still allows me almost all the same features as Adobe Pro. The lifetime license is a godsend, and if you just need to edit PDF's, sign them, or even create them, it has been a great product! I only took one star away for some issues I had with inputs, and the interface not being as intuitive as I am used to, but overcoming those hurdles makes this a fantastic replacement!

UPDF is an impressive PDF editor that combines powerful features with an easy, intuitive interface. Its editing tools are fast and efficient—honestly better than Adobe Acrobat in my experience. I also love the variety of background and display options that make customization simple. The lifetime license is a huge bonus, offering great value without ongoing fees. Overall, UPDF is a standout choice for anyone needing a reliable, user-friendly PDF solution.

After Searching a long time for a good pdf editor i found UPDF, it's really good and the UI is really mesmerizing.

Program doesn't work. Support is said to be within 24 hours by email. So far not true. Requested a refund, so far ignored.

I have been using UPDF Pro Perpetual since version 1.8, and now with version 2.0.9 I’ve seen significant improvements across the board. Back in the 1.x versions, the main issue I encountered was slow font loading and inconsistent font changes when editing text. These problems have been resolved in the current version, which makes the editing experience much smoother.

The main reasons I decided to stick with this software are:

* **Lightweight and fast**: UPDF launches quickly and feels lighter than many competing PDF editors.
* **Outstanding OCR performance**: Its Thai OCR is noticeably better than what I’ve experienced with A***e. It might be because the software is developed in Asia, giving it a better understanding of the language. This was a major deciding factor for me, and it continues to be the feature I appreciate the most.

There were some issues in earlier versions (1.8x), particularly with PDF layers. Edited text would be placed on the lowest layer, causing it to disappear after saving. However, this seems to have been fixed in the latest updates.

After purchasing, I also encountered problems with Thai vowel rendering. I reported the issue to the developers, and they acknowledged it and delivered a fix in a short time. This responsiveness left a very positive impression on me and increased my confidence in both the product and the development team.

Overall, UPDF has grown into a reliable and well-maintained PDF editor, especially strong for Thai users. I’m happy with the progress they’ve made and look forward to seeing how it continues to improve.~~~

A great PDF reader and editor. It has all the essential and important functions for a PDF reader and editor.

Completely competitive with other solutions on the market.

Very useful and price is affordable Luxury

Sehr gute Alternative zur kostenpflichtigen Version von Adobe Acrobat. Auch eine Lifetime Lizenz wird angeboten.

They charged me a service that I didn't demand.

非常实用，可以很大地方便文献的阅读。

PDF를 번역 시 전체 다 번역하지 않고 그대로 있거나 아예 번역을 안하고 빈칸으로 나올 때도 있습니다. 그리고 번역 상태가 업데이트 전이 오히려 번역이 좋음.
업데이트 이후로 모든 기능이 다 떨어진 것 같아요.
번역 관련해서 업데이트 해주세요.

Purchased a lifetime license for only about $30 several years ago and have not regretted it. It is lightweight and fast. Not super user-friendly, but can do many tasks. Customer support is great. Updates are free and make it easier to handle PDF and JPG files which I use often. Editing is convenient for editing PDF files. Rearranging and inserting/deleting pages is easy. Files can be reduced based on your file size preference.

It doens't do what it promise.
I want to order different pdf's and combine them. I have that done in the program. But than you save them an than they are in a different order again.

구독취소를 했는데 결제된 사유가 뭔가요? 환불해 주시오

Been trying to unsubscribe from their newsletter for a couple of months now. Wrote to Superace customer service multiple times - all without luck (they've responded every time, just incompetence). Wouldn't trust them to keep a plastic potted plant alive. Not a good experience - can't recommend.

Let's see if this helps anything.

Edit: they've responded. I'll keep the review up until I've confirmed their statement.

I purchased perpetual lisense to get app on my computer and be free from all stupid subscriptions, but eash time i like to use app i have to login and wait for some code to came to my email. Sometimes code don't arive from first time and you need to wait more. The whole idea to pay more for perpetual license is to be free, but this company like to hold you on short leash. I wish i choose some diferent app.
