PDF Fixer

Storing data into digital formats, such as PDF, will most likely come with some inherent and, potentially new flaws. Aside from the characteristics of the contained data itself, there are so numerous processes that can alter the structure and other elements of the PDF files, leading to data corruption. For such instances, PDF Fixer can be a quick, go-to solution, especially if users aren’t sure of the issues that might be affecting their PDF data.

The application receives single or multiple file inputs, but there is no control over the loaded content, nor can it be visualized, and this could be the first potential concern. Nevertheless, there is the option for adding the file via drag-and-drop, which makes the whole process a bit more efficient.

Aside from adding their required PDF files, users can choose the output directory for the processing and that’s about it as far as options are concerned.

When it comes to the actual repair process, users are given two main choices for the process itself, which we believe offer a certain degree of leniency. One can choose if the app is to address the internal content of the PDF file, as well as if the processing will concern the internal, XREF table.

These two options, although not so many, provide a bit of flexibility, especially for users who demand a bit more from the repair process and its characteristics.

Give this app a try, if you seek a compact and simple tool to repair your damaged PDFs, in just one click. However, bear in mind that its simplicity comes with some inherent flaws, such as the lack of more advanced features.
