Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada
What it is
PDF Repair Toolbox reads corrupted PDF files and saves recovered information to a new file for Adobe Reader or Adobe Acrobat. The Windows desktop wizard guides users through selecting, repairing, and saving a document; online file recovery is also listed. The maker says the program handles all PDF versions, including complex structures, and can restore non-linked pages and scan for links to media objects hidden by corruption or deletion. Before saving, users can preview the result, choose an output PDF version, and save it compressed or uncompressed. A detailed recovery log appears on the final page. The maker describes a freeware version without additional restrictions and asks users to donate to its community. Paid one-time licenses are listed at $25, paid once for personal use, $39, paid once for business, and $49, paid once for a site license covering up to 100 devices. Online file recovery is listed at $ 10 - per - 1 Gb. Password-protected PDFs cannot be recovered, and encrypted PDFs cannot be repaired.
