Thanks for sharing. It plays well with simple pdf files. As for some pdf files with lots of elements, I always convert PDF files to editable word format with AnyBizSoft PDF to Word Converter and edit them if necessary. It supports encrypted files and preserves text, layouts, images and hyperlinks accurately.
After you edit it, you can use an office add-on SaveAsPDF to save word as PDF format if necessary.
If your pc is facing slow startup problem then startup manager is necessary.After installation of this tool you can use your pc very easily.
