Not at this time I am afraid - but something we will be investigating after the release of version 3 later this year.
If posting files to this forum - you must archive the files to a ZIP, RAR or 7z file or they will not be uploaded - thank you.

Best regards

2010 has come and gone... a while.

Our office is considering switching to Mac, but pdf-editing is still an issue there.

Any chance of pdfXchange going Mac anytime soon?

Hello whulsbergen,

This is still something we are considering, but v3 still needs to be released first.

Best,
Stefan

HI BZTomas,

we will do our best. Rest assured that when the time comes to port to Mac it will be up to the high standards you've come to expect. The real question is when. We still can't commit to a timeline. V3 is literally on the horizon now so bear with us.

Regards
Best regards

HI wojtek,

I'd be misleading you if I were to say that a MAC version will materialize any time soon. We have had a number of users report success using paralalls (Windows Virtualization) as well as Wine (run the Viewer directly in MAC/Linux using Windows compatibility binaries).

My pleasure wojtek,

I've never used Wine in MAC personally but a lot in Linux and it's pretty good...
