Testing version 2008, not sure if it is stealth, but seems rather snappy, looks like a keeper.įor those having trouble with installation instructions:Ĭhoose default interface language (which you may change later via options),Įnter registration details (received freely at email address given while registering for download also, keep those details, as they are mandatory for SoftMaker Office 2008 installation),Ĭhoose location for install (not really important, as you'll be making that install portable),

doc > opened in textmaker > exported back to pdf > then edited that pdf, a 'T4 tax return' pdf (Canadian tax form), no issues (update rtf/docx test work 100% also) *Trick*: A little conversion of 'your non-self made source' pdf to an other document format (even via online), open that doc and re-export to pdf.you can now edit any pdf, no additional software needed

It competes with FOSS, other Freeware, light payware ($5) to full business suites ($500+).but is 'free forever'. if thats its s hardly a 'flaw' seeing they have a separate free pdf editor they offer also (but a 6mb PDFEdit will always win for me until 'better' features at size come along) Plus it make pdf's from txt/rich sources, can view them, no default edit (sadly, but work-around trick at bottom of post). It makes/edit epub (pdf with some limits/tricks) Plus kingsoft (and I think they ignore copyright/PRC dev's) and freeoffice (and its cripple ware) I know of.4 other legal/fully free apps that have that ability, including spread32 & atlantis (the others are gnumeric & the 'office' forks: free/libre office). Shocking, its 1 of VERY few app 'licencee's' for use of docx/xlsx. works out of about 22mb to 24mb for each 'stand alone', easier/smaller (well easier) using 'limited option installs' then using the 'make portable menu button' aka only install 1 app then make portable > repeat per app If you go single language & all help Chm's are 'joined', with redundant info omitted/combined, you can get it under 62mb FULL FUNCTION!Īll 3 main apps can be 'split off' (with their accompanying files/folders dll's etc), result, STILL FUNCTION (thats maddness, just want the text app, boom, just to do too/well named). *Heck It might be advisable to install it, make a portable USB copy, uninstall main app and copy USB copy back to PC's drive (as its a TON smaller.

I copied it all over the place (testing) no loss of function! its 10% the weight of Libreoffice or Openoffice (Kingsoft Office 'may' be iffy, I am unsure HOW they access docx/xlsx format licences) Portable and UPX packed, its under 65mb 'single language', docx, xlsx, pptx, pdf supported (see trick at bottom of post).
