TL;DR: Grab a lifetime subscription to PDF Expert Premium for $79.97 and edit, sign, annotate, merge, convert, and OCR your PDFs on Mac without subscriptions.

If you touch PDFs even once in a while, you’ve probably wrestled with clunky, limited editors that slow everything down. PDF Expert is a polished, Mac-only app that turns edits, annotations, and forms into a breezy workflow — and a lifetime subscription is $79.97 (MSRP $139.99).

With a lifetime subscription, you can edit PDFs without restrictions. Need to fix a typo, drop in a new logo, or update a paragraph? It’s all easy to do. You can even add links, fill out forms, and sign documents in just a few clicks. The layout is clean and intuitive, which makes a big difference if you’re used to complicated or slow PDF tools.

For reviewing files, PDF Expert gives you everything from highlights and pop-up notes to custom stamps. You can combine multiple PDFs into one, rearrange pages, or split out just the parts you need. It also handles file conversions, so you can turn PDFs into Word docs, Excel spreadsheets, images, or PowerPoint slides.

One of the best features is the built-in OCR. If you’ve ever scanned a document and realized you couldn’t search or copy the text, this fixes that. It even enhances scan quality and lets you crop pages or remove extra margins.

PDF Expert works on macOS 12 or later and is yours for life. It includes ongoing support and bug fixes. If you’re tired of clunky PDF editors or subscription models that never end, this may be the move.

Right now, it’s only $79.97 to get a PDF Expert Premium lifetime plan.
