Soda PDF is an application used to view, create, and edit Portable Document Format (PDF) files.[3] The software was developed by LULU Software in 2010, based in Montreal, Quebec, Canada.
Some of the main features are the following:
Other Soda PDF features are based on older versions such as Soda PDF 2012 and Soda PDF 5. The software also has the ability to read comic book files such as CBR and CBZ, and eBook files such as EPUB.[4] [5]
Soda View/3D is a free PDF application users can use to open, view, and create PDF files. The flipping animation tool of its patent-pending 3D feature enables users to go through pages of PDF files.[6] CNET has praised the 3D Reader as being “clean and inviting,”[7] However, the program also installs unwanted software that creates frequent pop-ups in Windows.
