Edit, create, and merge docs with PDF Reader Pro, now just $30

By BleepingComputer Deals

When it comes to document security, PDF is the undisputed heavyweight champ. Still, frustration is common around how rigid the format can be. Want to enjoy the security of a PDF but also have the ability to edit on the fly? Then you need PDF Reader Pro. And now is a great time to get it since both the Mac and Windows versions are discounted significantly.

PDF Reader Pro is software that lets users enjoy the advantages of a PDF document while being able to sidestep its inflexibilities. Like other types of PDF software, you can use it to create a document from scratch or to read one that’s been sent to you.

Where it differs is that you can then use it to edit the text, make annotations, change images, or what have you.

And that makes PDF Reader Pro a game changer and an ideal tool for just about every person in every industry. The Mac version has been installed over 60 million times already, in fact, and the Windows version over 90 million times. Couple those figures with positive critical reviews from around the web and it’s easy to see why PDF Reader Pro has quickly become so beloved.

If you work on a team that designs PDF documents for public consumption, then it’s an absolute must-have. You can start making your document, share it with your co-workers, and have them make their edits without affecting the overall layout or integrity of the document.

And it’s great for legal forms too as you can add things like digital signatures with ease. You can even convert documents into a range of other formats.

Social Security Payments 2023: The Final August Check Is Going Out This Week

The final round of August Social Security checks will go out this Wednesday for recipients whose birthdays fall between the 21st and 31st of any given month. All others should have received their payments for this month already. For those who receive Supplemental Security Income, those payments should've arrived on Aug. 1.

If you don't receive a payment this week, note that the Social Security Administration disburses its checks in multiple rounds throughout the month. We'll help you find out when your Social Security payment should arrive and tell you how your payment date is determined. If you just started receiving Social Security benefits, learn the best time to begin collecting your benefits and how to pause them for a bigger payout later. 

Here's the August schedule (PDF) for when you should receive your Social Security check and/or SSI money:

The Social Security Administration typically sends out payments on the second, third and fourth Wednesdays of each month. Which day you receive your check depends on your birth date. 

Payments for SSI recipients generally arrive on the first of each month with a few exceptions they get into below.

If you received Social Security benefits before May 1997, or if you receive both Social Security and SSI, the payment schedule is different. Instead of getting your payments on a Wednesday, you'll receive your Social Security payment on the third day of each month and your SSI on the first day of each month.

However, those payment dates change if the first or third day of the month falls on a weekend or a holiday. For instance, July 1 fell on a Saturday this year, so SSI recipients received their July payments a day early, on June 30, and their Social Security payments should have arrived on July 3. 

If your check doesn't arrive on the date listed above based on your birth date or other circumstances, the Social Security Administration says to wait three additional mailing days before reaching out. If you still haven't received it, you can speak with a representative at 800-772-1213. (The SSA notes that wait times are shorter Wednesday through Friday and between 4 p.m. and 7 p.m. on weekday afternoons.)

You can also access your Social Security benefits online.
