From Adobe Acrobat
Edit text, highlight, comment, fill forms and sign PDFs, then split, merge, compress or convert them, without a separate PDF subscription Scanned pages can be read on your own computer
From Google Docs
Work on real files on your own computer instead of documents in a browser, with a version history that stays in your folder and works offline
From ChatGPT or Claude on their own
No more pasting a document into a chat and copying the answer back The assistant edits the file in place, every change is shown, and one press undoes the lot
