Soda PDF is a PDF editing and document management platform available through a web app and Windows desktop software. It lets users edit PDF text and images, convert files between PDF and formats such as Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and images, merge and split documents, compress files, annotate content, and use OCR to make scanned documents searchable.
Soda PDF also supports fillable forms, electronic signatures, password protection, permissions, and document review tools. Its online version works in a browser, while the Windows desktop app can be used offline for editing, conversion, merging, security, and other PDF tasks.
Soda PDF is designed for individuals, professionals, and teams that need to create, edit, convert, sign, or organize PDFs for contracts, reports, forms, archives, and other everyday document workflows.
