more than 70% free functions for basic tasks without any ads, the software is really great, can edit text without watermark, if you just need basic viewing and editing then it wins For you, advanced functions need to purchase a license.

The download links should be changed. It seems that pdf-xchange.com doesn't offer portable version downloads now. They are available on https://pdf-xchange.eu/DL/pdf-xchange-editor.htm

@portablesw1123: Seems like they still do, under the dropdown at the download page? |
Sizer is a freeware utility that allows you to resize any window to an exact, predefined size. This is extremely useful when designing web pages, as it allows you to see how the page will look when viewed at a smaller size. The utility is also handy when compiling screen-shots for documentation, using Sizer allows you to easily maintain the same window size across screen grabs.
Sizer 4.0 has been completely rewritten to improve compatibility with modern applications including Windows 10 Apps. Sizer 4.0 is less intrusive than previous versions and therefore is more stable. Unfortunately this increased stability comes at a small price, some infrequently used features have been removed as a result.
Note: Further feature info and previous 32-bit Sizer v3.32 still available from https://www.brianapps.net/sizer/.

Sigil is a tabbed editor for the EPUB format commonly used in eBooks. The program includes basic formatting, customizable fonts and styles, hotkeys and spellcheck. You can generate a table of contents, embed files (audio, video, or other), edit/add metadata, rearrange or split pages, add vector (SVG) images and available "clips" for frequently entered text.
As the format is based on simple HTML, the program includes a WYSIWYG-style book vs. code view, the ability to modify cascading style sheets and additional functionality via plugins. The program can even shrink some eBooks by discarding unused media elements.
Cross-platform with clients for Linux, Mac and supports many languages. Sigil Portable is a wrapper version of the program and an outdated X-Sigil is also available.

This note on the download page: |
PDFsam Basic lets you split, merge, and extract pages, as well as rotate and mix PDF files. Input files can be merged completely or partially, and a page selection can be set in the form of comma-separated page intervals (eg. 1-10, 14, 25-), letting you specify what pages you want to merge.
Generated PDFs can include a table of contents at the start of the file. A list of clickable entries will let you easily navigate through the merged files.
Versions for Mac and Linux also available, as well as a commercial version with additional features.
