What is Reddit's opinion of Xodo?

From 3.5 billion Reddit comments

Usando f.lux podes ajustar el blanco del pdf para que coincida con la luz ambiente y no fatigar el ojo al divino pedo.

Tambien podes usar el lector PDF de Xodo, tiene una bocha de modos de visuales/vista ademas del modo nocturno y hasta podes personalizarlo con los colores que quieras. Es una alternativa genial si los pdfs tienen imagenes a color que normalmente se rompen en otros lectores al activar algun modo nocturno.

Xodo is the best for computers that support it. Since you have edge I'm assuming you have windows 8 or 10, in which case you can download it from the microsoft store.

It loads fast. Much faster than adobe, the initial reason I abandoned it.

It has more features than sumatra You can highlight, type, and supports stylus writing for my surface.

It doesn't play well with mac or windows 7, but since I don't have either it's not a problem for me. Those users can suggest their favorites.

XODO PDF changed my life as a post secondary student. In a world of PDFs, copying what the prof writes down on the board is just redundant but note-taking is still important. But if you don't copy everything from the PDFs you lose context of the notes you take down in your notebook.

​

So XODO is an awesome pdf editor and annotator for android. I bought a cheap Galaxy Tab with samsung's S-Pen and started annotating all the PDFs with extra information the prof wrote down.

​

Haven't taken a single note on paper in my last 4 years of engineering. It also allows me to save the notes as pdf and upload straight to google drive to access from anywhere later and share with friends.

I usually delete all pages with full page art, maps, credits, Kickstarter backers, table of contents and index. Then make bookmarks for the pages I want to reference quickly. I have an old ereader, so the reduced size file without art and extra pages makes a difference, and it's less dead pages to flip past when reading through the PDFs.

Edit: I've recently started using Xodo to crop the pages as well, that way I can have a consistent zoom level across all my PDFs and save more wasted space.

I think the best PDF app for reading is XODO

If you like to handwrite notes use Goodnotes you can just import the pdf and annotate on top of it.

Q: what’s the difference between the app and just using the website on iPad

A: With the app you can view videos offline.

If you want to create PDF files, you can use libreoffice. If you want to write on PDF files, you can use xournal++ or xodo. My personal preference is xournal++.

Libreoffice and xournal++ are free and open source.

Check out Xodo Pdf. You can download from Microsoft Store. There is also web version. Been using it for years and never searched for another application.

I was just googling around reddit with the same question. In the past, people have recommended this app for a better experience when handling heavy pdfs: https://www.xodo.com/ Dunno if it will work with any hardware tho, as I'm about to jump into the tablet bandwagon myself...

I really like xodo for taking notes at school with my touchscreen, and I've definitely used it to keep my place in knitting patterns. I use it with windows and android, but it's apple compatible. It's got a freestanding app that I use primarily, and a plugin for safari. I like the freestanding app better than the plugin - it gives me more functionality, but I use both. Oh, and it's free!

well maybe i understood it wrong but look

​

On Aug 15 2022 the "Bookshelf" and "Shared with me" features, and any of your Xodo documents, will be retired.

It appears they are in the midst of changing their web site. It is now pdf.online, but the knowledge base with answers still seems to be inaccessible.

I found at the bottom of https://pdf.online/legal a link "Help us improve" where you can send your query. There is also this link: https://www.xodo.com/support.html

Must add, OP, have you found Xodo, yet? IDK if it does what you want in OP, but it has been the best PDF reader for my needs. I have the app on my Tab S7. I cannot believe it is free!

Xodo PDF Reader, it's in the Windows Store. The site says Android / Windows / iOS but I only tested the Windows version. It has both reader and editor features. Reader features include dark mode, bookmarks, annotations and up to 20 open tabs.

I love this program, available as a desk top program, online service and as a mobile app.Edit PDF docs with touch screen capabilities (a stylist is handy), add photos from devices to the pages, add pages to the pdf from other pdfs, includes ink, comment, draw, add text boxes, and highlight features. It will also convert word doc to pdf.I have a Rocketbook that I upload hand written notes as pdfs into this program. i can digitize my notes, edit them in the program and print them out for class.
It will also handle large files, ie 900 page books. This app is the reason I prefer pdf textbooks. I can take a screen capture of a diagram in the book, then paste it into my pdf doc notes and have the diagram right there when studying.

10/10 on this app for me, its become an integral part of my course work

Well, you said yourself "I don't know anything about coding" ... so how exactly do you expect to recognise what an embedded *.EXE file looks like?

New idea: Try and load that PDF into a PDF editor? e.g. https://www.xodo.com/

The idea here being that a PDF editor would take the PDF file apart and list what it is constructed of. E.g. you should be getting "Image" fields for embedded logos, you should be getting "Text" boxes for text fields, you should be getting information such as "Embedded font" if there was a TrueType font inside that PDF. You should definitely be getting error messages about "Unknown binary attachment" or something like that if something is hiding in that PDF that does not correspond to PDF standards.

If you get no errors whatsoever when loading the PDF into a PDF editor I'd say the file was probably clean.

Drawboard PDF and Xodo PDF Reader usually get recommended the most to stylus users. I love both of them but use Xodo because it's free and I'm fine with its selection of features. Drawboard PDF costs a little money but it's deeply built for people who have a touchscreen and a pen.

By far my favourite Windows and Android pdf reader and editor is (Xodo)[https://www.xodo.com]. It supports comments and a minor editing, but IMO its main appeal is that it is very lightweight and lightning fast.

I found a thread that discussed free alternatives to Acrobat and one user suggested XODO.

Apology for not mentioning the link.

Nope, not from Apple. But available for free on Android, Windows, iOS, and as a chrome web app. Feel free to give it a try - it's a great pdf viewer and editor.
