The full-page editor, Edit PDF, shows every text block and picture on the page. Click text to edit it, move a picture, and press the done button. It comes with a licence.
Opening a PDF does not run dangerous programs or scripts. External links ask before they open, though that can be turned off; links to another page in the same document do not ask. A form's field scripts run while you fill in or calculate the form, in a sandbox that sees only the form's fields and never files or the network; changing a field recalculates the form. Turn form scripts off in Preferences to stop them. Dangerous attachments are blocked, and you can still save one if you trust it.
A locked document shows the page icon too, and a blocked command offers an unlock button so you can enter the owner password.
Documents with long names now save, even close to the system's limit.
When the file cannot be written, the save failure says what went wrong in plain words and offers Save As… under another name.
Signatures are checked more strictly: a changed page or a revoked certificate is reported, not passed.
A broken signature shows a warning shape on the page icon; a document changed after signing clears the verdict and shows the ordinary check icon until you check again.
The command line needs a licence for any change.
The update feed is verified, and the downloaded file's SHA-512 is checked before it is offered for install.

A scanned page can be edited in place: draw a box round the words, check the recognised text, and the box is replaced in the page’s own look; the picture can be restored.
Help is complete in all 36 languages, including Polish.
When the assistant cannot answer, its refusal now appears in every language, including Inuktitut.
A Free Reader can read notes, follow links and bookmarks, open attachments, preview and extract portfolio files, and check signatures; every editing action now asks for a licence.
Form recognition keeps two ticks that sit close together as two separate checkboxes.
A new assistant answer opens at its first line; the quick-edit Format panel fits at 200 %, and the signed or protected page icon has a visible focus ring.

Select the words, press Edit, and change them where they are — no window opens; when you finish, the change is one undo, and Esc throws it away. A dotted rectangle marks exactly the words being edited.
Every page of a protected or signed document shows a small icon at the top right that names its state when you rest on it, and opens the details when pressed; a screen reader reads the word.
The Help assistant on licensed computers: ask how to do something and get numbered steps that name the Help pages used, with the passage quoted word for word or the page opened in Help.
Your question and language are sent, with the same licence check the app uses — never your document.
A Free Reader does not show it.

Check for updates when ynotPDF starts; a found update downloads in the background and installs when you choose, or when you next close it. A managed machine's policy wins either way.
Check a document's health when it opens; see where its size is, make a smaller copy, prepare it for fast viewing on the web, and repair a damaged file into a new copy — the original is left alone.
0.0.7322
A large picture used as a custom stamp is scaled to fit, and a successful activation shows one Close button.
Problem reports say whether this copy is licensed and no longer show internal setting names; a screenshot that is too large for a report is shrunk.
0.0.7309
Activation now says when the licence service answered but the app could not use its answer; a gift licence with no end date now activates.
0.0.7300
On Linux, activation now says when the system cannot store the licence securely, and what to check.
