Key features and benefits

• Full PDF editing suite – Edit text, images, and entire pages directly within your PDF files. Correct typos, update figures, swap images, or reorganise document structure without returning to the source file. This eliminates the frustrating round-trip between PDF and Office formats that wastes time and introduces formatting errors.
• Advanced OCR with searchable output – Convert scanned documents, image-based PDFs, and faxes into fully searchable and editable text. The integrated optical character recognition engine preserves layout fidelity, so archived paper records become instantly retrievable digital assets.
• Comprehensive document conversion – Transform PDFs into fully formatted Microsoft Word, Excel, and PowerPoint files, or export to a wide range of image and text formats. Batch processing lets you convert entire folders at once, saving hours on repetitive manual exports.
• PDF creation from any printable application – Print to PDF from any Windows application with full control over compression, font embedding, and security settings. Create ISO-compliant PDF/A documents for long-term archiving directly from your usual workflow.
• Annotation, markup, and review tools – Add comments, highlights, strikethroughs, and custom stamps. Measure distances and areas directly on technical drawings. The collaborative markup toolset makes document review cycles faster and more transparent, whether you work alone or in a team.
• Digital signatures and stamping – Apply electronic signatures and custom dynamic stamps that pull data from your system, such as date, time, and user name. Sign contracts, approvals, and forms without printing a single page.
• Form creation and filling – Design interactive PDF forms or fill existing ones. The form field recognition feature automatically detects form elements, so you can complete paperwork digitally in minutes.
• Document security and redaction – Apply password protection, permissions, and digital certificates. Permanently redact sensitive information with a dedicated redaction tool that removes content beyond recovery, essential for legal, medical, and HR documents.
• Optimised performance on Windows – Built as a lightweight, native Windows application that runs efficiently on standard business hardware. Requires only 2 GB RAM minimum and 2 GB storage, with a 4 GB RAM recommendation for smooth handling of large documents. Supports both 32-bit and 64-bit Windows environments.
• Multilingual interface – The user interface is available in English, German, French, Dutch, and Polish, allowing teams across European offices to work in their preferred language without additional configuration.

What's included with your purchase

When you buy Microsoft PDF-XChange Editor Plus 24 months from Lizensa, you receive a complete, activation-ready package delivered digitally to your email and customer account. The licence is a 24-month term licence—valid for two full years from the date of activation—covering the Plus edition with all premium features enabled.

Your purchase includes:

• A genuine, individually issued licence key for PDF-XChange Editor Plus.
• A direct download link to the official installer from the vendor's distribution channel.
• Step-by-step activation instructions, written in clear English and available in your Lizensa account at any time.
• A VAT-compliant invoice suitable for business accounting and tax purposes across all EU member states.
• Access to Lizensa's multilingual technical support team for installation and activation assistance.

The licence is issued as a digital ESD (Electronic Software Delivery) product. It is not a physical box or USB stick. Activation requires an internet connection and a valid email address. Once activated, the software runs locally on your Windows machine and does not require a constant internet connection for daily use.

What this tool does for you

PDF-XChange Editor Plus is a desktop PDF editing application that gives you complete control over your document workflows. Unlike basic PDF readers that only let you view and annotate, the Plus edition unlocks the full editing engine: you can modify text, adjust images, rearrange pages, and convert files between formats with high fidelity.

For the non-technical buyer, this means you can correct a contract without asking the sender for the original Word file. You can take a scanned invoice, run OCR on it, and search for the invoice number instantly. You can combine five reports into one PDF, add a cover page, number the pages, and apply your company stamp—all within one application.

The 24-month term gives you a predictable cost window. You know exactly what you are spending for two years of professional PDF capability. At the end of the term, you can evaluate whether to renew with a new licence, upgrade to a perpetual version, or reassess your needs. There is no automatic renewal trap and no obligation to continue.

Why choose Lizensa for your software licences

When you buy a software licence, you are not just buying a key—you are buying the certainty that it will work, that it is legal, and that someone will help you if something goes wrong. Lizensa has built its reputation on delivering exactly that certainty to customers across the European Union.

Every licence we sell is sourced through authorised European distribution channels and verified before delivery. You receive a genuine, individually issued key—never a volume licence key split illegally, never a key of uncertain origin. This matters for your compliance obligations, your audit readiness, and your peace of mind.

Your purchase is protected by EU consumer law, including the 14-day right of withdrawal. If the product does not meet your needs and you have not activated the licence, you can request a refund within that period. For business buyers, we provide full VAT invoices with reverse-charge applicability where valid, making procurement straightforward for finance departments.

Our checkout is secured by Stripe, supporting payment by credit and debit card, SEPA bank transfer, iDEAL, BLIK, Google Pay, and other regional methods. Your payment data is never stored on our servers. After payment clears, your licence key is delivered by email—on average, within 60 seconds. There is no waiting for postal delivery and no shipping cost.

If you need help, our multilingual support team is available free of charge. Whether you have a question before buying, need guidance during installation, or encounter an activation issue months later, we are here to assist in English, German, French, Dutch, and Polish.
