A lifetime PDF editor for Mac just dropped to $79.99
TL;DR: PDF Expert is a fast, full-featured PDF editor for Mac, and its lifetime license is on sale for $79.99 (reg. $139.99) — no subscriptions required.
PDFs aren’t going anywhere, and neither is the frustration that comes with dealing with them. Whether it’s a contract that needs signing, a form that won’t let you type anything, or a document that suddenly needs edits five minutes before a deadline, PDFs have a way of showing up at inconvenient times. If you’re going to need a PDF editor anyway, it helps to have one that actually makes the process easier. PDF Expert does exactly that — and its lifetime license for Mac is currently down to $79.99 (reg. $139.99).
At first glance, most PDF editors seem interchangeable. But as the youths would say, PDF Expert is not like the other girls. Used by more than 30 million people worldwide, it stands out for how fast, polished, and straightforward it is. The app was even a runner-up for Apple’s App of the Year back in the day — losing out to Periscope that year, which, well, time tells its own story. PDF Expert, meanwhile, is still very much here and doing what it does best.
PDF Expert covers the basics most people need. You can edit text, insert images, add links, fill out forms, sign documents, and redact sensitive information. It also handles more advanced tasks, including merging and splitting PDFs, rearranging or deleting pages, adding stamps, and converting PDFs into formats like Word, Excel, PowerPoint, images, or editable text files. Conversely, you can go the other direction and turn files like JPGs, PNGs, Word documents, or spreadsheets into PDFs.
For anyone dealing with scanned documents, PDF Expert includes OCR (optical character recognition). That means scanned text becomes searchable, highlightable, and copyable.
The lifetime license removes ongoing costs entirely. You get unlimited use across your personal macOS devices, along with lifetime customer support if something ever goes sideways. So if PDFs are a regular part of your workflow — even occasionally — this deal makes sense.
PDF Expert’s lifetime Mac license is available for $79.99 (reg. $139.99) for a limited time.
