Hi Joe, I actually own the Pro Version of PDF-XChange Editor, along with several other editors such as Adobe Acrobat Pro X, PDFelements and a couple of others that slip my mind at the moment.
How to rotate pages in a PDF with free software So even Tracker Software is saying that there's no reason to use the free Viewer - use the free Editor instead!ītw, here's another video that I did about the free version of the Editor: The PDF-XChange Editor is now available and supersedes the PDF-XChange Viewer ! I see at their website that they still offer the Viewer, but note this comment at that link: Once I made that determination, I uninstalled the Viewer and have used only the Editor ever since. However, I recollect keeping both for a while, until I was comfortable that the free Editor was all I needed. In other words, there was no reason to have both products on the same system. My recollection is that I received an email from them saying, essentially, that the free PDF-XChange Viewer (which I had been using for a long time) was being replaced/superseded by the free PDF-XChange Editor. I agree - their downloads have always been confusing!

I told it to run both as if it were Windows 8. I tried the "compatibility tester" feature. Like the edges of fonts in Chrome look fuzzy and are hard to look at.Ĭhanging the display settings back and forth seems unnecessary.
Plus, at 2048 x 1150,Įverything else looks bad. And then, if I change the resolution back to 3840 x 2160, GIMP 2 keeps the correct icon sizes while pdf Xchange reverts to tiny. When I do this, both programs look correct. Now, I tried LOWERING the display resolution to 2048 x 1152. I took a screen shot and when I put it here, the icon sizes CHANGED relative to font. You can see between open and zoom on the second menu toolbar, the icons are like 4pt font. Now, my laptop (Hp Specre) display is set to 3840 x 2160.
Yes, I tried changing the scaling in display. Some apps, like Gimp 2 or Tracker's PDF Xchange have ridiculously small icons.
