Closed Caption:
Hi everyone, Kevin here. Today, we're going
to look at the ultimate PDF editing app,
Wondershare's PDFelements 10. With it, you
can edit PDFs, you can convert your PDF to
different file formats like Microsoft Word, and
you could even use the magic of AI to summarize
your entire PDF. Those are just a few of the
features that we're going to look at. Basically,
if you end up doing any work with PDFs, this
app is a must have. Let's check this out. To
get PDFelement 10, head to the following website.
You can click on the card in the top right-hand
corner, or also the link down below in the
description. Once you land on this website,
click on the button that says free download,
and that'll kick off the download process.
Thanks to Wondershare for sponsoring this video,
you'll be able to try out the software to test
out all the different capabilities. If you end
up working with PDFs often, you'll also want to
consider some of the paid plans that unlock
all of the advanced functionality. Once you
finish installing PDFelement 10, you'll see an
interface that looks like this. At the very top,
you have a set of tools that help you very
quickly start working on PDFs. Down at the bottom,
you'll see all of your recent files. Now I have
a PDF contract that I need to start working on.
I'll click on this icon and here's the PDF file.
I'll simply drag and drop this into PDFelement 10,
and this opens up my PDF. Looking at this PDF
document, it's going to need a little bit of
work. Up at the top, this isn't our official
logo. And here, if I scroll down a little bit,
you'll see the contract text. This is an
image of the text. It's not the actual text.
Luckily, I can edit this PDF just like a Word
document. Up on top on the home tab, I have some
of the most common tools that I need to work with
PDFs. Right over here, I have the option to edit
all the different elements on this PDF. I'll click
on this. I can also click on this dropdown if I
just want to target specific elements within
this document. Now that I've selected that,
you'll see that these different elements have
highlighted. I could select this title here and
I'm going to delete that. I'll hit the delete key.
I'll also select the cookie and I'll press delete.
Over on my desktop, I have the official logo. I
could simply drag and drop that and then add as an
image to my PDF. And here we now see the official
logo included on this PDF. I could reposition it
and I could also resize the logo. Now I want it to
be centered on the page. With this image selected,
over on the right-hand side, I'll click on
properties and right down here under actions,
I can center this on the page horizontally.
That looks perfect. Along with being able to
edit images, I can also make tweaks to the text.
Here, when I click into this text field, I noticed
that oatmeal raisin is misspelled. It has an I
instead of an O and it looks like PDFelement has
detected that. I get that red squiggle underline.
I could right click on this word and let's insert
raisin. That looks better. Here at the very end,
I say, get ready for an amazing return. Now we
are a cookie company, so I think it would be more
fitting to say, get ready for a sweet return. If
I scroll down the PDF just a little bit, here we
have a signature line and it says, signing your
name here legally binds you to make an investment.
Now, a lot of people miss that it's binding. So, I
want to make sure this stands out. Back up on the
home tab, I also have a highlighter tool. I also
like this and let's go with a yellow highlight.
Here, I can highlight all the text and that way
it'll really stand out. Now, no one can claim that
they miss this text because it stands out so much.
Up at the very top, I have additional tabs. I
could click into the edit tab and I have all
sorts of different tools. I could add additional
text to the document. I could add images, a link,
a watermark, a background, a header footer, and
I have even more options here. I want to make
sure that no one misses signing this field. Up on
top, I'll click into comment and here I have all
of these different commenting tools that I can
use. Over here, there's a tool called the stamp
tool. I'll click on that and there's the option
for sign here. And I could place these different
stamps on my page. I’ll select the one that says
sign here and I'll place it right here. I don't
think anyone will miss this now. This contract
is starting to come together. However, if I
scroll down to the second page, here I have that
image of the contract instead of the text itself.
I'll go back up to the home tab up on top and
right here in the center, there's an option
called OCR. This stands for optical character
recognition. So, what does that mean? Basically,
the computer will look at this text and understand
what the text is so I can edit it. I need to save
the file first, so I'll click on save. This now
opens up a dialogue where I can configure some
of the different options. I want to be able
to edit the text, so I'll select this option.
I just want to convert page two, so I'll make
sure to go with the current page and English
looks good. Down below, I'll click on apply. It's
now going through and processing this page and
extracting all of the text. And look at this. It's
extracted all of the text from the image and I can
click into the text and I can edit any of it. This
makes it so much easier. I could select the image
in the background and I'll delete that, so I'm
just left with the text. I'll select the text
and I can now move it around and let's position it
right at about there. That looks really good. It
looks a lot better than before. Looking at this,
I think it would be a really good idea to also
include a summary or a conclusion for all of this
text, just to really seal the deal. Now I could
write my own conclusion, but that'll probably
take a little bit of time. Instead, I could
rely on the AI copilot that's now built directly
into PDFelement. Over on the right-hand side,
I'll click on this AI sidebar icon, and this opens
up a pane over on the side. At the very bottom, I
have the option to summarize the entire PDF. This
is something that'll be very useful, especially
as I review so many different PDFs. Here you
can summarize, you could rewrite, you could
also have it proofread, and if you click on the
ellipsis, you have all sorts of other options. Now
I want it to write a conclusion for all of this
text. So, I want it to look specifically at this
PDF. I’ll make sure to check this box and here it
says, ask me anything. Well, you said anything,
so can you write a conclusion that is no longer
than three sentences about why investing in the
Kevin Cookie Company is a good idea. To have the
AI start working on this, I'll click on this icon.
And check that out. It's now given me a very
nice summary for why investing in the Kevin
cookie company is a good idea. This looks really
solid. I can now highlight all of this text and
I'll copy it. Over on the edit tab, here I can
click on add text and let me add this text to
my document. I'll simply paste the text
in and then over on the right-hand side,
I can adjust the font and the size, so it fits
in with the rest of the text. And just like that,
it now matches the rest of my document perfectly.
That looks really good. When I scroll down my PDF,
at the very end, I have an extra page. Also,
one thing I don't like is I include reasons for
why to invest after you're supposed to sign the
agreement. Ideally that text would come first.
Luckily, it's very easy to reorganize my PDF. Up
on top, I'll click on the organized tab and here
I have that blank page. I'll select that and here
I can delete that. Also, I want the why invest to
appear first. I can simply press and hold on
it and I'll move it to the first position.
Not only can I move pages around or delete pages,
here I can also pull pages out. I could split
PDFs. I can also insert additional pages and here
I have a few more controls. So, I could really get
the PDF document to look exactly how I want it
to look. Now that the PDF is coming together, I
need to get it ready to share with the client and
they requested that I share it as a Word document.
Up on top, I'll click on convert and here I can
convert this PDF into all sorts of other formats
and here's Microsoft Word. Now, also, when I go
over to the right-hand side, I also get these
quick actions and here too, I can also convert
this PDF into any one of these file formats. I’ll
click on Word and let's save it first. And right
here, I can now output it as a Word document. I'll
click on okay. And just like that, I now have
a Word document of this PDF. That is so easy.
The PDF looks all good now. And I'm at this stage
now where I want to start collecting signatures
and luckily, it's really easy to do that. Up
on the top tabs, let's go all the way over to
the right-hand side and click on the option that
says protect. I have several different options,
but I want to request an e-signature. I’ll sellect
this item and this now opens up a prompt. Here, I
can see that we're using this file that I've been
working on. I can enter in different recipients.
I'll enter in Nestor. I need him to sign this.
Down here, I can also type in a message, but
I'll stick with the default and here I have some
additional settings. I can even send reminders if
Nestor doesn't sign the document right away, but
I'll stick with the defaults and then down below,
I'll click on next. On this next screen, I need to
drag and drop the signature fields for recipients.
Here I'll click on get it and let's scroll down
to where the signature field is and it's right
here. I'll place this there, and right over here,
I can now click on send. And look at that. It's
now successfully been sent out for signature.
I'll go to the agreement list. I can now track
who has signed this agreement. I'll click into
this one and let's see if anyone signed it yet.
This now drops me into my PDF document. And
if I scroll down just a little bit, there,
I can see that Nestor has signed the document
and I also see a timestamp for when he signed
it. Over on the right-hand side, I can see
all the different properties and when it was
viewed and also when it was signed, that makes
it so much easier. All right. Well, that was a
quick look at how simple and intuitive it is
to work with PDFs using PDFelement 10. Again,
