PDF Fixer - A Brilliant Corrupt PDF Recovery Software Tool
Repair Corrupt PDF data, Fix and Recover Corrupt PDFs Back!
PDF is a very common document format in our daily work. It is a binary coding format generated by virtual printing of various files. Since most of PDF data is compressed, editing PDF files with a text editor will cause file corruption or data offset, or lose part of the data due to network instability during network transfer, which will cause PDF files to be damaged and corrupt. PDF reader programs cannot open or repair those corrupt PDF files and would prompt a few error alerts.
PDF Fixer is a free PDF repair utility which repairs corrupt PDF files by restructuring the damaged PDF data, rebuilding XREF tables and then restore these damaged PDF documents into readable PDF files.DOWNLOAD NOW - 16 MB
