Honestly, preview does everything you mentioned, and it's pretty good at that! For a paid alternative, you can check out pdfexpert. It has a lifetime purchase option though it's a bit pricey. Source: 10 months ago
I just took a look at the lifetime deal as available on pdfexpert.com, it shows amongst other:. Source: about 1 year ago
I don't know if it does everything you need, but you can check out PDF Expert, which is available on both macOS and iOS/iPadOS. Source: about 1 year ago
For anyone who draws, absolutely. I even use Procreate for brainstorming sometimes, because it's so much faster and more intuitive than any other app I've used. Another thing that IMO is way better on iPad/Pencil is PDF editing and annotation. I happily pay for a subscription to PDF Expert[0] and I just use it for school.

Try PDF Expert from Readdle (https://pdfexpert.com/). It's my go-to for stripping maps and other images from SFS modules and APs. Love that app! Source: over 1 year ago

I adopted PDF Expert years ago and never regretted the investment. Fast, lightweight but it's pretty expensive if you want the lifetime one-time payment. It makes it very easy to merge PDFs. Source: almost 2 years ago
Thank you! So you're saying that I can open a (large - more than 500mb) pdf file on it and use mark-up tools to annotate it by handwriting? (pen, highlighter etc.). I need an alternative to https://pdfexpert.com/ basically! Source: almost 2 years ago
Https://pdfexpert.com/ - free trial available - is also better than acrobat imo. Source: about 2 years ago
I use Zotero (with zotfile) to keep my PDFs in a google drive folder, which I access using the free version of PDF Expert on my iPad. That way my highlights stay synced w/ Zotero and I can review/extract them later. Source: about 2 years ago
I have found PDF Expert able to do everything I want with pdfs; good luck, u/ohno1111111. Source: about 2 years ago
Would PDF Expert work in your situation? It’s what I use to do all that stuff! Source: about 2 years ago
This is an excellent Mac PDF editing tool. I'm not affiliated, just a user. https://pdfexpert.com I was editing pdf drafts from a publisher and just couldn't stand another minute of dealing with Acrobat. Found this, removed all vestiges of Adobe, and haven't looked back. I've used Preview a lot, but it just isn't reliable (for me). Apple seems to muck around with the code every couple of versions and break... - Source: Hacker News / over 2 years ago
I've had reasonable luck annotating PDF's on an IPad w/ an apple pencil with either Preview or PDF Expert (https://pdfexpert.com/) . PDF Expert is more feature rich and has both Mac & IPad versions, but has a subscription cost associated with using some of the more useful features, whereas Preview is free, but has rudimentary annotation capabilities.

PDF Expert is your best choice. It does most of what Acrobat does, and it does all the important stuff. Source: over 2 years ago
