Back in April we published about cool PDF Tools, artice listed online ‘from XYZ to PDF’ converters, couple of Adobe Acrobat alternatives, and a number of PDF printers. Although this time there are only 3 tools, each of them offers some useful features that were not addressed earlier. Defnitely check them out.
PDFHammer is a web-based application that allows you to merge and rearrange PDF documents online. It’s extremely easy-to-use and runs directly from the browser. Just upload your PDF files and start arranging the pages in any order you want. You can also delete any page you want. Once done, use the “Export Final PDF” button to download ready PDF to your PC.

You guys rock!! I’m always finding fun and useful tools from this blog! Welcome to the new writers
These are great, but is there a free application that will let me edit a PDF ? I don’t have the “pay” software that will allow me to open it and edit it. I have permission to open the PDF so I can change the phone numbers and address on an ad, but I can’t see paying for the advanced adobe software to open in. Any ideas ?
Sorry, I am still to find one. :-)
Not sure if Foxit does this? IMO it’s a better choice to Adobe on a PC; renders pages much much quicker and has (at least) all the features of Adobe.
Foxit is a free and quicker alternative to Adobe Reader. As far as I know, there is no ‘editing’ feature in the free option.
To Edit PDF files :
- PDF Editor (pdfedit.petricek.net/pdfedit.index_e)
- Free PDF Tools 5.0 (pdfill.com/pdf_tools_free.html)
Have fun!
Thanks, very helpful
good, it works excellent on my pc!!!
Actually there is a very good tool called X-Change pdf viewer that can view, and edit PDFs with ease. Just go to download.com and look for it or google it. Trust me, it works.
Hope this helps
X-change PDF Viewer works very good for viewing and editing, and it is free
P.S. I hope I did not write the comment twice
Hi! I am looking for an app that will allow me to show PDF files directly in the web page, without having to discharge the PDF to the machine..
Many thanks,
Miguel
