AI Recommendation
1 suggestionPDFelement 6 Pro was released in 2017 and there is no evidence of a native Apple Silicon build ever being released by Wondershare. The search results and documentation focus on the 2017 version with Intel architecture, and Wondershare's product line has since moved forward to PDFelement 7 and newer versions. PDFelement 6 Pro continues to run under Rosetta 2 today, but will stop launching entirely when Apple removes Rosetta in macOS 28 (September 2028) — less than 28 months away. You should contact Wondershare directly to ask whether they plan to ship a native Apple Silicon build of PDFelement 6 Pro, or whether they recommend upgrading to a newer version of PDFelement that has native support. If a native build is not forthcoming, consider upgrading to the latest version of PDFelement, which is more likely to have Apple Silicon support, or evaluate other actively maintained PDF editors with confirmed native builds such as Preview (built into macOS), Skim, or Coherence X.
