PDF Converter Professional 7 is our smartest PDF solution ever. It includes all the features you expect and some hot new functionality you won’t find anywhere else. Here’s more about what you get:

Smarter PDF Creation

Like other more expensive solutions, PDF Converter Professional 7 allows you to create high-quality, compact PDF files from any PC application or scanner. Toolbar shortcuts for Microsoft Office allow you to make a PDF copy of your documents with a single click, and the PDF Create Assistant allows you to easily convert multiple files into a single PDF, create PDF packages and more, with drag-and-drop simplicity. PDF Portfolios allow you to place multiple files, even folders, within a single PDF file in order to more effectively organise, share and secure document groups. Powerful stuff made easy.

Smarter PDF Conversion

PDF Converter Professional 7 introduces a 21% increase in Excel layout accuracy plus multi-page PDF output to a single worksheet. It supports the new Office 2010 and even lets you automatically convert a scanned or image-only PDF file into a Searchable PDF. Plus, you can convert any page area in any PDF without having to process the whole page. There’s also an easy-to-use batch Converter Assistant so you can convert multiple documents at once. That’s smart.

Smarter PDF Editing

PDF wasn’t designed with editing in mind. But with PDF Converter Professional 7 you get all the PDF editing you need. You can select, move, re-size, rotate, copy, and paste nearly anything in a PDF document, copy graphics to other applications and edit text in-place. You can even assemble and reorder PDF documents as easily as shuffling paper on your desk – now with previews to ensure you’ve got the file you want and to choose which pages you’d like to add to your PDF file. It’s smarter PDF editing for less!

Smarter PDF Collaboration

This release features a comprehensive array of mark-up and commenting tools for all your collaboration needs. Highlight, cross-out, or underline text – now automatically. Add pop-up comments or stamps. Compare two versions of a PDF document side-by-side. Compare a PDF document with its Word counterpart. Merge comments from multiple reviewers into one integrated PDF document. Print with Comments to make for easier review. Simply stated, PDF Converter Professional 7 makes collaboration smarter.

Smarter PDF Security

These days, document security isn’t just important, it’s imperative. PDF Converter Professional 7 gives you the power to securely control PDF content with the highest available level of security: 256-bit encryption. The Inspect Document feature enables you to completely remove sensitive information like comments, document properties and more. PDF Converter Professional 7 now lets you make PDF annotation and layers fixed and permanent with password protection or extends customised permission control down to PDF layers. Safe. Smart.

Smarter PDF Searching

PDF Converter Professional 7 lets you easily search across all elements of a PDF file, including bookmarks, comments, footnotes and more. The new “Looks Like” Search even finds information based upon a distinct pattern found in number or text sequences like telephone numbers, dates or email addresses.

And Much, Much More…

We’ve also made sure we included all the advanced features you need in a complete PDF solution, including integrated spell checking, document splitting, automatic table of contents creation, full support for new Windows 7 and Office 2010, support for Firefox and Chrome – you get the idea.


Create PDF files from any PC application

Instantly create 100% industry-standard PDF files that include all PDF and PDF/A versions with security options that are fully compatible with all PDF viewers. You can even add bookmarks and transfer hyperlinks when creating PDF documents from Microsoft Word, Excel and PowerPoint.

Produce more professional-looking documents

Deliver documents that look as good in print as they do on screen – no matter where you send or view them. Combine any type of file and/or folder into striking PDF Portfolios – with attractive cover pages that guide your audience – that can be viewed with any popular PDF reader. Even add pictures, graphics, movies, audio or 3D drawings to communicate your message with attention-grabbing style.

Get unparalleled support for Microsoft Windows 7 and Office 2010

Stop opening additional applications or printing documents to get PDF creation. Get all the features and benefits of PDF creation inside Microsoft Office, Microsoft Outlook and Microsoft Windows. Create PDF files of any document type with a simple click while browsing files with Windows. Support for Windows 7 Jump Lists provides quick access to recent files and common PDF creation and conversion tasks. What’s more, integrated Microsoft Outlook PDF tools allow you to archive entire folders of email and related attachments at once.

The world’s most accurate PDF conversion

Don’t waste valuable time recreating documents with complex layouts and graphics. Convert PDF files into Microsoft® Word, Excel®, PowerPoint®, XPS and Corel® WordPerfect documents – complete with the most accurate fully-formatted text, columns, tables and graphics available with any PDF software. PDF Converter Professional 7 can combine all pages of a PDF document into a single Excel worksheet to eliminate tedious cutting and pasting. You can even select, copy or convert only the text you need from a PDF document – without having to do any editing.

Collaborate like never before

Effectively exchange ideas and provide directions by adding comments via notes, stamps, call-outs, and more to documents. View, organise, prioritise and update all your comments using the convenient Comment Panel.

Turn paper into PDF more productively

Create PDF files directly from your scanner with time-saving one-click scanning to PDF. Scan to standard image, searchable, or editable PDF formats. Scan and highlight, cross-out or underline – all in a single step. You can even set up and manage a central network scan inbox that also connects to eCopy ShareScan®.

Create searchable PDF files and fillable forms

Don’t let the hassle of filling out long forms slow down business. The auto-detect feature automatically identifies a non-searchable PDF file and offers to make it searchable or editable with a single click. It will also identify a non-fillable form and offers using FormTyper™ to convert it into a fillable PDF form that you can complete, save, and email.

Combine and assemble documents with ease

Combine files and remove or replace pages with drag and drop ease. View and select pages from a source document – such as XPS, Word, Excel, PowerPoint, WordPerfect, JPG, BMP or TIF – to insert into a target document. Just drag-and-drop the pages to automatically convert them to PDF and add them into the PDF file.

Perform smarter searches

Get the most accurate conversion to searchable PDF available with any PDF solution. Search everything in a document – even the contents of bookmarks and comments – so you’re sure to find what you’re looking for. Use the intelligent “Looks Like” search capability to quickly find content, like phone numbers and email addresses, via an alphanumeric pattern rather than exact text. Automatically highlight, cross-out or underline search results for faster, easier PDF editing.

Manage multi-layer graphics

Better manage graphics with the ability to view, select, merge and flatten layers created by programs like AutoCAD®, Microsoft Visio® and Microsoft Project.

Enhance document security

Add passwords with secure encryption and permission controls to PDF files to control document viewing, printing, and modifications. Automatically inspect documents and remove sensitive data for safe, secure document sharing. Authenticate document owners using self-signing, Microsoft Crypto or third-party digital signatures. Or flatten everything in a document, including signatures, stamps, mark-ups, annotations, filled form fields and graphics for enhanced document security. This feature is especially useful for limiting document modification during archiving or e-filing.

Bring multimedia to PDF

Embed Flash® and Microsoft Silverlight® into PDF files to create polished, attention-grabbing multimedia documents – quickly and easily – with remarkable results.
