If you want to create a PDF file on your Windows 11/10 laptop or desktop, then it can be done using a third-party PDF Editor software. There are both paid and free PDF Creator software for Windows PC.

PDFgear is by far the best free PDF editor we’ve tried, and the only one that lets you modify existing text in a PDF. Other free PDF software lets you add comments and images, but not edit the text.

The editor comes in two paid tiers. PDF-XChange Editor, which allows you to edit text and graphics, annotate and secure documents, and create and convert PDF files, costs $56 for a single license.
