Foxit launches PDF Editor v2025.3 with advanced compliance, security upgrades, and AI-powered productivity tools

Foxit, a global leader in PDF and document productivity solutions, is releasing Foxit PDF Editor v2025.3, strengthening the company’s commitment to delivering secure, compliant, and intelligent document workflows. 

"This milestone release emphasizes our strategic vision to lead the industry in responsible data protection and secure, frictionless collaboration," said Evan Reiss, SVP of marketing, Foxit. "By empowering organizations with innovative features designed for today's dynamic digital environment, we enable teams to confidently manage, share and protect critical information–boosting efficiency and trust across every workflow." 

Foxit PDF Editor v2025.3 introduces updates that enhance secure collaboration and responsible data protection. These improvements offer greater transparency and control during shared document workflows and help organizations uphold governance standards, according to the company. Features include:

• Consent Collection: Users receive a clear region-specific consent prompt before accessing shared documents. The prompt informs participants that others may see their information and requires them to explicitly opt in. 
• Invitation Transparency: Collaboration invitations now state that participant names and email addresses may be visible to others and include a direct link to Foxit’s Privacy Policy. 
• Audit and Data Handling: Consent activity, including user identity, timestamp, IP address, and consent text, is securely logged for audit purposes. If users decline consent, the system automatically anonymizes them in shared environments. 

These updates reinforce Foxit’s commitment to delivering secure, compliant document collaboration solutions for enterprise and government customers, the company said.

Foxit PDF Editor v2025.3 introduces important security improvements for Windows users who rely on Microsoft Sensitivity Labels to safeguard confidential content.

The update incorporates automatic authentication with the Microsoft Azure Information Protection (AIP) plugin by using the user’s current single sign-on session, removing the need for repeated login prompts and ensuring protected documents open smoothly with the correct access rights, said Foxit.

Organizations can control this behavior centrally through registry settings or the Foxit Customization Wizard, thereby enhancing consistency and reducing the risk of access issues. These updates make high-security workflows more efficient, save users time when handling labeled documents, and reinforce compliance with internal policies, according to the vendor.   

Additionally, Windows users now have a new option that automatically removes hidden information when saving or closing a document, helping teams protect sensitive metadata and maintain internal privacy standards

Foxit PDF Editor v2025.3 enhances its AI features with new tools that help users work smarter and faster, said the vendor.  

The update introduces AI image generation to create visuals directly from text prompts, moves the Summarize Document feature to the main AI Assistant ribbon for easier access, adds translation support for 9 additional languages, and allows users to export AI-generated answers directly to Word or PDF for instant sharing and editing.

Also, Foxit PDF Editor now features an enhanced Smart Command mode that lets users perform PDF tasks using natural language.

In addition to AI improvements, the update also offers broader productivity and usability enhancements to improve collaboration and streamline daily document tasks. Additionally, it adds support for Dropbox Team Folders across Windows and Mac, making it easier for teams to access and share centrally managed content. 

Windows users also experience an improved commenting system that simplifies review tasks. A new favorites toolbox lets teams save and reuse custom markup styles for faster, more consistent annotations.

Foxit PDF Editor v2025.3 is available now for Windows and macOS.
