PDF Fixer combines both techniques and supports the recovering of file data next to that. Once you need to repair a really damaged PDF document, you will find that neither PDFTK nor Ghostscript can recover the file data. PDFTK (PDF Toolkit) and Ghostscript are two free PDF command-line tools and both of them have the PDF repair function, but PDFTK can only repair PDF information problems, while Ghostscript can only regenerate XREF tables. Both free programs support the repairing of PDF files but use different techniques that fall short sometimes. PDF Fixer combines the repair capabilities of PDFTK (PDF Toolkit) and Ghostscript. 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. The developers explain how that works on the official program homepage: PDF documents that you drop on the program interface are loaded before the program attempts the repair. You may drop a single file or multiple files for batch repairs. Just drag & drop damaged PDF files on the interface to try a repair.


The program is offered as a portable version that you can run on any supported version of Windows right away, and has no third-party program dependencies. It is compatible with Windows XP and newer versions of Windows, including Windows 10. PDF Fixer is a straightforward tool for Windows devices to repair PDF documents. Having to deal with PDF documents that won't open in PDF viewers is quite a frustrating experience, especially if you need to view the file or at least gain access to its content somehow.
