A number of online PDF editors are starting to emerge, and I believe it’s a trend that’s only going to continue, perhaps culminating in Adobe releasing a truly online version of Acrobat.
Previously we’ve looked at PDF Hammer and now we’re going to look at PDFescape. I found PDFescape generally pretty easy to use and the list of features it includes are impressive for an online editor:

View PDFs online
Fill out PDF Forms
Add text and shapes
Move and delete pages
Insert links
Create new form fields
Share & collaborate
Store PDFs online

There are some limitations in place …

Ever encounter the problem where you’re reading, writing, and publishing more than one document at the same time?  
Rhetorical question!
You know the scenario — you’ve got multiple windows open — all stacked on top of each other, you’re alt-tabbing applications to the point of arth-thumb-ritis. Even with 2 x 21″ screens and your Intel® Core™2 Extreme processor QX9770, you feel like you’re driving your Ferrari F430 Spider with the hand-break on.
Well, a quick and easy solution to this problem is to pick yourself up a copy of Desktop Rover™ v4.0. You will need multiple …

A cursory glance, or rather quick search at Google will reveal that the topic of redacting PDF has been hot for a looong time.
During my time at Planet PDF, we even ran a review of a US government employee’s efforts at redaction gone wrong in which a thought-to-be-redacted report revealed names, training procedures and other secrets.
Nope, this is not a new issue — there’s a swagger of “paid-for” software you can find (in addition to functionality included in Acrobat 8 and 9), using all types of methods — usefully listed …

Brad Feld raised a fair point in his The Kindle and DRM blog post today by posing the question — why isn’t it possible to share ebooks, which you’ve purchased through Amazon for your Kindle, with other people?
He’s not talking about creating multiple copies of the ebook and sharing it with people, he’s talking about actually transferring the ebook to another person, just like you would physically give a paper book to another person, so that they can read it. This happens every day with real books, between friends or …

Long-time PDF expert Duff Johnson has shared some of his initial thoughts on Google’s new Chrome browser:
I had wondered if Google was going to (try to) write their own PDF viewer for Chrome.  Not this time; the installer seems to find and use the Acrobat/Reader plugin, assuming it’s already installed into Firefox or (presumably) IE. That’s a good start.
Too bad, that would have been a handy feature. Luckily, I think there’s a good chance this feature will be added in the future, since Google Doc’s users can already view PDFs in …

Up until recently I had been thinking about buying a Kindle. From the reviews I’ve read, it sounds pretty good, and not having to carry around physical books is a real bonus.
So as preparation for buying a Kindle I thought I’d try reading a few e-books on my Eee PC, to see if I could stand reading books on an electronic device.
It turns out that a) I don’t mind reading books on an electronic device, if the device is right, and b) I don’t need a Kindle any more because …

There’s a few online services that offer free PDF creation, but there are barely any that offer free online PDF editing, like PDFHammer does. It allows you to merge PDF files together, reorder and delete pages, apply password-based security and add and edit document metadata fields like author, title, subject and keywords.
All from the comfort of your browser, without having to download anything to your desktop. Pretty cool.
