# 1 Adobe Acrobat alternative for Mac

Canonical page: https://macbase.app/alternatives/adobe-acrobat

Adobe's PDF app for viewing, editing, signing, converting and commenting on PDF documents.

Acrobat's editing tools come with a subscription, and many people only need to fill in, sign or mark up the odd PDF. Alternatives offer a one-time price, a lighter app made for the Mac, or free tools for reading and annotating PDFs.
