Foxit PDF Reader is not just a PDF reader yet it comes with little to no ability to modify the PDF files. It can read the PDF files, have basic level annotating features such as adding comments, highlighting text, or add new text in the PDF file.

AbleWord is not a complete PDF solution but it provides the necessary features for absolutely free of cost. There is no option to modify PDF images but you can modify the text just like the word file. Moreover, it does not work with the scanned documents as well. The only advantage of this PDF modifier software is that you can open or save the PDF files as the Doc or Docx extensions.
