Announcement of Foxit PDF Editor for HKUST Staff

In response to ITSC survey feedback requesting easier access to a convenient PDF editing tool, HKUST has made Foxit PDF Editor available for all staff and students. 

Foxit PDF Editor enables users to create, merge, rotate, reorder, delete, and split PDF documents, as well as create and fill forms. Its features are very similar to those of Adobe Acrobat Standard, making it a great alternative for your PDF editing needs. The University is providing its license for every faculty, staff member and student.

You can easily download and install Foxit PDF Editor on your office computer as well as your own Windows PC or Mac. An online version is also available for use in your browser. License activation is straightforward and provision via Single Sign-On (SSO) using your HKUST account.

We are thrilled to offer you this powerful tool to enhance your productivity. For more details, please visit our Foxit PDF Editor page on Software Portal, where you can find a comprehensive description of Foxit PDF Editor. There, you will also find step-by-step instructions for downloading, installing, and activating the software, along with online training videos provided by the developers.
