Native Mechanical Symbols
BOM balloons, flag notes, dimension leaders, and full GD&T frames — built in from day one. No hacks. No workarounds.
GD&T That Feels Right
Quickly create clean, professional feature control frames with proper formatting and scale-aware placement.
Keyboard-Driven Speed
Switch tools instantly. Duplicate and align fast. Minimal clicks. Designed for engineers who use shortcuts.
Social Proof
Stop Using Generic PDF Tools for Engineering Work
Most PDF editors were built for contracts and legal documents. Mechanical drawing reviews are different.
You need precision. Speed. Symbols that look professional. Tools that don't fight you.
PDF Engineer removes the friction between seeing a problem and marking it clearly.
