There are over a hundred features available, including more than thirty tools that can be used to assist in the creation of document comments, annotations and links.

It can be used to create PDF files from scanned documents, images, text files, Markdown files and much more. If you work with PDF then this fully-customizable product will optimize your work process to levels that no other product can achieve. Alternatively, PDF-XChange Viewer Portable adjusts paths, with an OCR plugin and help file available from the website as separate downloads.Create, view, edit, annotate, OCR and sign PDF files – and that’s just the beginning.

The program supports exporting to BMP/JPEG/TIFF/PNG etc., or extracting text from a PDF page/file. Edit features include the ability to rotate documents, add comments/annotations to any PDF file, apply custom stamps from any image/PDF file/Windows clipboard, mark-up pages with text and objects, and type directly on any PDF page in "Typewriter" mode.

PDF-XChange Viewer is a feature-rich program that displays multiple PDF documents within a tabbed interface. NOTE: This program has mostly been replaced by PDF-XChange Editor (also portable), which is actively updated and contains additional features.
