What it does
The PDF work you do every day, in an app that opens in an instant.
Edit the text itself
Click a paragraph and type. It keeps its font, size, color and alignment and rewraps, and every change is checked before it is kept.
Sign with certificates
Digital signatures that Acrobat and other PDF apps check, with a trusted timestamp. Use a certificate stored on your computer, a smart card or a file, or make your own.
Sign by hand
Draw, type or photograph your signature once, then place it with a click. It is kept securely on your computer.
Combine and organize
Combine PDFs and pictures, and reorder, rotate, insert, extract or delete pages in the sidebar.
Make scans searchable
Recognize Text reads scanned pages on your computer and adds the words invisibly, so you can search, select and copy them.
Mark up and fill in
Highlight, draw, add text and notes, and fill in forms, with standard annotations that every PDF app shows.
Fast and light
Opens large documents in an instant and runs nothing in the background once it is closed.
In ten languages
English, German, French, Spanish, Italian, Portuguese, Japanese, Korean and Chinese, Simplified and Traditional.
A closer look

Change the text itself
Click a paragraph and type. The new words keep their font, and the paragraph rewraps around them.

Signed, and checked
A certificate signature shows your name, department and the date. Signatures you receive are checked: who signed, and whether anything changed since.

Pages in the sidebar
Drag pages to reorder them, drop in PDFs and pictures, and rotate pages with a shortcut.

Scans you can search
Recognize Text reads a scanned page on your computer. Then you can search it, and select and copy its words.
Free. Nothing to buy.
AEShot PDF is free, like every AEShot app: nothing to buy and no ads. Every feature is yours from the first launch.
Private by design
Your documents stay on your computer. No account, no ads, no tracking of what you do, nothing uploaded: the app sends only an anonymous count of installations. Text recognition runs on your computer too.
