v0.2.0
PDF Reader is now Agentic PDF
This release renames the app. If you installed PDF Reader 0.1.4 or earlier, it will not update itself to this version: download Agentic PDF below, move it to Applications (or unzip it on Windows), and delete PDF Reader. Your recent files and update settings carry over the first time you open Agentic PDF.
New in this release: highlight, underline, and strike through selected text, add a drawn signature, and save both into the PDF.
Install
macOS: download the zip for your Mac (arm64 for Apple silicon, x64 for Intel), unzip it, and move Agentic PDF to Applications.
Windows: unzip the archive and run agenticpdf.exe. Keep pdfium.dll in the same folder. This build is not code signed, so Windows SmartScreen may warn on first launch. Click More info, then Run anyway.
Verify downloads against SHA256SUMS.txt.
