We need it for contracts, cost estimates and diagrams. It's very easy to upload and share to others. It's easy to save as well. > > **Cons**: Sometimes it's a little complex when trying to edit a pdf with simple things like a signature or adding elements. > > Again we use it every day multiple times a day. Having access to it and the shareability is vital for our company. ----- ### "Excellent Adobe" — 5.0/5 > **Mary** | *2 April 2026* | Education Management | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: I love Adobe PDF Library for rendering and customizing data. The accessibility and customization are truly fantastic. > > **Cons**: I have had no bad experiences with Adobe PDF Library. I cannot rave about this platform enough. It's stellar\! > > Ease of use, file conversion, accessibility checker, all aspects of Adobe are perfect for the work I do. ----- ### "Great software for PDF creation and edition." — 5.0/5 > **Eddi** | *9 December 2024* | Human Resources Software | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: Adobe PDF Library is the most comprehensive software for PDF files. Is all-in-one for PC, tablet or mobile phones, allowing users to create or edit PDF files on the go. > > **Cons**: Pretty much any software from Adobe is considered too expensive for general users. > > I've used PDF Library for only the trial period and did not subscribe further as many of the advanced functions were not of my interest and overall speaking the software is just too expensive. ----- ### "This is the best PDF software" — 5.0/5 > **Mona** | *8 September 2022* | Law Practice | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: Adobe created the Portable Document Format or PDF. This is the best PDF generator, reader, and editor. It’s the best way to print PDFs. This can be used with Adobe software like Adobe acrobat, giving it more uses. Sign documents without using pen and paper, cleanly without errors. If a PDF does have errors Adobe PDF library is able to fix them. Convert or compress a file. All of the current updates in the PDF world are present. > > **Cons**: This is expensive. Some people think it’s hard to use, the Java version has given me temporary problems. Signing documents is faster with newer APIs. > > This experience has been positive, I’m satisfied. Signing documents without pen and paper or face to face meetings has saved time and propelled us into a better way of getting work done. This has saved the day many times when I received PDFs from clients and sometimes even from our attorneys that have tons of errors. I don’t know how else I would have fixed them. Like I said, Adobe is the creator of the PDF and will likely always be the best way to generate and edit them. The person or company who created something will almost always know more about it than another company who came along later. ----- ### "A must have for everyone dealing with PDF" — 4.0/5 > **Julien** | *30 June 2022* | Printing | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10 > > **Pros**: Low level API Good documentation Easy to implement > > **Cons**: Very slow for some operations Very slow with huge PDF (sometimes it takes more than a day to merge several PDF and save the result) > > We usually are able to do what we want. Except for big pdf (or poorly formatted) where sometimes we find some operations very slow. ----- Page: 1 / 2\ Next: [Next page](https://www.capterra.ae/software/1015462/adobe-pdf-library?page=2) ## Links - [View on Capterra](https://www.capterra.ae/software/1015462/adobe-pdf-library) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | de-AT | | | de-CH | | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-IL | | | en-IN | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | | es | | | es-AR | | | es-CL | | | es-CO | | | es-CR | | | es-DO | | | es-EC | | | es-MX | | | es-PA | | | es-PE | | | fr | | | fr-BE | | | fr-CA | | | fr-LU | | | it | | | ja | | | ko | | | nl | | | nl-BE | | | pl | | | pt | | | pt-PT | | | tr | | ----- ## Structured Data
