PDF-XChange Viewer versus PDF-XChange Editor

[Willy Van Nuffel]

Sorry that I ask this, but I do not immediatly find it clearly stated:

Will PDF-XChange Viewer continue it's life besides PDF-XChange Editor, like Adobe Reader and Adobe Acrobat (Writer) are doing, or will the Viewer finally be 'replaced' with the Editor ?

Hi Willy,

Thanks for the post - we're planning to keep the Viewer available for users with existing licenses, and for companies who want a Viewer without inline editing capabilities. It will be a Free download and no longer for sale.

Hope that helps!

[Willy Van Nuffel]

Thank you very much for the answer.
Now it is clear to me.

Could you clarify it please.

What exactly does it mean - Viewer. Will it 2 or 3 version. In other words what version of the Viewer are you going to provide?

[John - Tracker Supp]

Hi,

we will continue to offer the Viewer V2.5 as a free product only - and the PDF-XChange editor (V3) will also be offfered in a free format where around 85% of the features will be available for free use as in the existing Viewer - and in a licensed version to unlock the other 15% of reserved features.

One note though - once the Editor becomes the default product for purchasing although the Viewer will be offered for download still - we will cease to extend its feature set - or correct bugs etc, only the Editor will continue to be updated and extended by our development team.

Hope that helps.

Good morning,
today I have rcognized that there is a changing in the structure of available products.
As far as I have understood and in a short: the viewer will be 'out of date' and is replaced by the new editor.
I do have a two year licence (Viewer) expiring in December 2013.
Will there be a way to transferr / upgrade to the editor?

Hello Horst,

Everyone with a valid Viewer license and maintenance will be able to upgrade their license for free, and if your maintenance has expired - we would be offering some heavy discounts if you still want to upgrade.

Best,
Stefan
