Are you referring to this software? : https://www.callassoftware.com/en/products/pdfapilot

Did you try to upload the exe to virustotal to check the results?

ESET has detected it as a trojan , it could be a false positive and it could be some malicious codes are hidden inside while the developers didn't notice ,could be few reasons.

I have submited file to ESET in EFS. I uploaded file to VT and 3 engines detected it as virus:

If you are interested you can also try

https://app.any.run/ and https://www.hybrid-analysis.com/ for more tests

For analysis and confirmed reply you have to wait for ESET Staff.

Could be a false positive. Microsoft has done so in the past with its detection: https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/wdsi/threats/malware-encyclopedia-description?Name=Trojan:Win32/Detplock .

Submit the .exe to Eset with wording you feel its a false positive.
