Well Thank you !
It's working, don't have to install a thing on my office computer which is good.
But I will always have second thought before using with confidential documents...
The standalone Foxitreader is a great app by the way =)
Cheers

Please show me what the software can do. How can I find it? I have seen video, I come to www.foxitsoftware.com to find, but I found nothing.
Please show me some screenshots. I need to know do I need it or not.
Thank you.

Can anyone who has actually got this to work please comment?
Thanks.

From 26 April 2020 to 30 Sep 2020 is 157 days or about 5 months.
***Is this veiled INSULT to GOTD members and users? ***
Why would anyone want to download and install this web-based online software? It is basically a 5 month access to an online program. You are not even getting the program off-line. The price of USD$29 is for a 5 month usage.
PDF Candy online can do all this Free Of Charge.
You can buy the offline version of PDF Candy if your PDF documents are sensitive. The price is USD$30 for once-off life time ownership of the program.

How I would improve PhantomPDF Online is make it a standalone PhantomPDF Desktop/Tablet product. My PDF documents are none of your server admins or interested criminal hackers business.

TK, They do have a PhantomPDF desktop program... occupies the best part of a gigabyte.... does not work on Vista... though installs without mentioning it won't run... would likely install on XP too and not run there either. Badly implimented installer script.

well in a nutshell Thanks but no thank you I'll stick to software on my computer instead I trust my computer more when it comes to secure documents

It is free until the 9th day of the 30th month. I do not understand this!

Zen , nah it's the backwards USA date format. 30Th September 2020 approximatly 6 month trial license for an online service that leaves your document content vulnerable to employee abuse and criminal hacker abuse.
Save | Cancel
Zen , you're not from the US are you?
Save | Cancel
Zen , Maybe, just maybe, it means the 30th of September. Just a hunch. A wild thought. Throwing it out there. I could be majorly wrong, of course, but it does make more sense than the 30th month. Ya think.... ?

I use an older version of their desktop program, which works pretty well. And it cost significantly more . So I'll give this a try. Yes, if you actually do some kind of critical data handling, maybe cloud programs are not for you. For memos and operating instructions and such? Not really my concern.

Paul Wright, If you have a desktop equivilent why would you bother trialing a web application that is subject to all manner of security concerns as well as reliability and availability risks since in addition to your hardware and OS needs to remain reliable so does the web browser and their sites coding must not have been compromised behind the scene, their server or just your internet connection could go down mid edit and you lose all your changes or work. Everything in your ISP, their connection to the internet backbone and the server farms connection as well as the individual servers all need to function 100% just to be usable... a local desktop application that only relies upon your hardware operating correctly has always got to be the better solution and saving encrypted copies off in the cloud if you need offsite backups.

TK, Internet reliability isn't that bad - its not like in the 80s when you had to reset the modem every five minutes.
Encryption is pretty routine now.
I assume you don't have Internet banking or an Amazon account for fear next door will hack into your account?
Save | Cancel
TK, The desktop version is on my desktop machine. I have a laptop. My wife has a machine of her own. I sometimes work at machines at our church. The online capability is of value. It is absolutely valid to consider the security issues you surface. But those are balanced against other values. Again, I don't see security concerns with the documents that we work with. YMMV.

My Goodness They're After Me, LOL... I do use Amazon... just placed an order less than 5 mins ago but I do not use online banking because of the banks terms and conditions where the responsability is unfairly placed upon the customer and the banks pretend their systems are 100% secure and unhackable and the authentication security is also 100% uncompromisable. E.G. using emails or SMS for two factor authentication both are unencrypted and interceptable at many points and both can be spoofed by criminals. Internet is not as reliable as LAN and LAN is not as reliable as on same machine programs. You obviously do not understand the technology and have never had a *DSL connection spontaneously disconnect and resync which if you do not have a static IP will result in a need to re-authenticate a secure conenction. Or never had a server burp on you.
They are not after you... you are not that important but they may be after your money or data though!

Paul Wright, Antoher option is to use a portable teamviewer on a thumb drive to remotely login to your desktop machine with the desktop program and use that from any of the network connected machines at church or anywhere else. Then if the conenction is in anyway interupted the desktop editing session will just sit there awaiting your return :)

Send your private data to someone else?
Who knows what happens to your data in the cloud?
Would have tried it if it worked 100% on my pc with NO cloud interface.
To risky for me.

I would never be comfortable to send any PDF to somebody's server, because of security and privacy issues. Remember, what ever you send to Internet, belongs forever there and millions of people may be able to see your PDF files one day.

I am sure most people will not like my comment. I don't know the developers, but listen, I am sure these people work a lot to have a good product and be succesfull, so I appreciate a lot they give this gift. They are giving me the opportunity to try for a lot of time instead a week or so. I will give it a try, and if I like it why not buy it? Have a good day.

Jorge, Psst a 6 month trial license is NOT a lot of time.

Jorge, The biggest problem these smaller companies have (and thus a smaller IT team) is they re-use components. So instead of implementing high-grade security and investing in the latest technology, they use old libraries and methodologies for creating their software. Lets take an example that probably doesn't exist in this product. You upload a document, but it has to be stored on their server. Lets assume they do that by using a number. Eg, your user account number, and a sequential number. Your account number is 10003. Sequential number 1. You upload a document, and it gets stored as 100031. Now, it would be pretty easy to guess someone else's document would be 100021. Etc. Or lets assume they use a GUID. They're random, right? But what if they don't implement a mechanism which locks you out after trying a random GUID? If you could just throw GUIDs at the server hoping for a hit, you'll get one eventually.
Old software has many problems.
