Primo PDF

2009-08-18T10:49:00.001+05:30

Primo PDF is my favorite software to convert files into PDF. It is light, fast and also does not leave any water marks claiming responsibility for the printed material.

One of the better features is that - it allows to add more pages to an existing PDF file, therby allowing to create a porfolio of reports etc.

Features of Primo PDF:

Create PDF files from 300+ file types.
Make PDF documents for different uses, including online viewing, eBooks, office printing, and prepress (high-end printing).
Combine PDF files after they are converted.
Secure with passwords and add document information (title, author, etc.) during creation.
