I've been a user of Smile PDFpenPro for years... when they changed over, I didn't hear NUFIN'! And I've tried contacting "nitro" with regard to updates/pricing and never get a person to talk to... Nitro done blew up! So I'm looking for another program to replace it... any suggestions?

The new Nitro PDF Pro v13.67.0.45 is a great addition for those who use SharePoint Online regularly. The SharePoint Online Extension makes it easier to work with PDFs stored in SharePoint, and the full price is a bit much, but there are discounts available: https://proscost.com/nitro-pdf-pro/

v13.2.1 is the current version. Marketing at Nitro has renamed the PDFPen series, if only to confuse their customers. PDFPen is now 'Nitro PDF Pro Essentials'. PDFPen Pro is now 'Nitro PDF Pro.' The version numbers have stayed the same. - - I've personally moved on to PDF Expert as my goto PDF editing app. The price is more sane. The app is more reliable and easy to use. The updates are regular without being charged a gauging upgrade fee.

This app is completely bugy. Be careful, it will flush you hours of work down the toilet. I seriously try to work on pdf's with it. Linking tables of content to pages, lost all of them after a save. Working on OCR entries... horrible workflow and doesn't work as it should. For me completely overpriced crap.

I will not be updating to 13.0, I find PDFPEN Pro to be buggy and slow with jerky scrolling compared to PDF EXPERT which has very smooth scrolling and overall works much better.
