Why PDF CosEdit?

Productivity + Power = Value

The key features and practical applications of CosEdit equip users with significant productivity gains and power over PDF files and other Cos based documents, making it a valuable tool for every PDF expert. CosEdit is a stand-alone application. Therefore, additional Acrobat licenses are not required.

Common use case scenarios

• Edit documents: modify existing data, create new objects, or import objects from existing documents
• Navigate and explore the low-level object hierarchy of a PDF file (or any Cos based document) for the purpose of debugging, preflighting, etc.
• View or extract stream data such as page description, images, fonts, and embedded files.
• Inspect and modify document information (e.g. title, subject, keywords, etc.)
• Use document rebuild functionality to fix files ( e.g. files with broken cross reference tables).
• Remove unused objects (e.g. objects that are not referenced).
• Create a new document from scratch.
• Perform high-level operations on the document using a small set of atomic operations: insert/delete pages, edit bookmarks, annotations, and other high-level constructs.
• Inspect, add, remove, and modify security and permissions settings for the document.
