Product Description

From the Manufacturer

ScanSoft PDF Create! is the fast, reliable, and affordable way to turn all of your PC documents, drawings, and images into industry-standard PDF files. Now you can instantly create PDF documents that are compact and easy to e-mail, can be universally viewed on the Web, and that print just as if they came from the original application. PDF Create! also gives you all of the advanced features you need, including compressed file sizes, password security, 128-bit encryption, compatibility with PDF 1.5, batch conversion of multiple files at a time, watermarks, bookmarks, hyperlinks, and more. PDF Create! is compatible with ScanSoft PaperPort Pro Office, Adobe Acrobat and Reader, as well as other PDF viewing or editing applications.

Features:

  • Industry-standard PDF: Supports PDF v1.3, v1.4, and the latest v1.5; also supports PDF XML tags. Creates 100-percent, industry-standard PDF files that can be read, printed, or processed by popular PDF viewer programs--such as ScanSoft PaperPort Pro Office and Adobe Acrobat Reader.
  • High-quality PDF: creates the highest quality PDF files from nearly all Microsoft Windows applications, retaining the precise layout of the original document.
  • Optimized, small file sizes: Creates highly optimized PDF files, resulting in dramatically smaller file sizes. Supports industry-standard compression options, including loss-less and JPG 2000, and enables optimization for the Web.
  • Passwords and security: Users can set passwords on PDF files, requiring others to know the password in order to view or print the document. 40-bit and 128-bit encryption can also be applied to the PDF file, with the user able to control whether the document can be viewed, printed, edited, copied, or annotated.
  • Automated batch creation: The PDF Create! Assistant makes it fast and easy to create PDF documents--from multiple files and multiple file types at the same time. Users can use drag-and-drop to add files to the batch, or can simply select the range of files they wish to turn into PDF.
  • Merging documents: Users can select a range of original files and have them copied as PDF files--into separate PDF files or into a single combined PDF document. Users can also merge multiple files into a single PDF page-by-page, which is ideal for merging letter text into a letterhead template document, or to merge form data into a form template.
  • Automatic PDF to e-mail: users can choose to have PDF files automatically added as an attachment to an e-mail message, simplifying the sharing of documents over the Internet.
  • Watermarks and stamps: Users can apply watermarks and stamps to their documents, choosing from a pre-made selection, or creating custom versions. Custom watermarks can be applied from other PDF files, or created within the PDF Create! Assistant.
  • Short-cuts and application integration: PDF Create! allows users to create PDF files from practically every PC application, accessing its functionality through a printer interface. ScanSoft has integrated toolbar icons for PDF Create! with a number of popular applications, including Microsoft Word, PowerPoint, and Outlook. Users can also create PDF using the right-mouse shortcut in Windows Explorer.
  • Advanced font embedding, graphics, and page-size controls: Supports font embedding for all standard and non-standard fonts; also supports shading and transparency conversions. Users can select the graphics resolution of the resulting PDF, and can control PDF page size and orientation. The product supports the creation of custom page sizes and automatic scaling in inches, millimeters, and points.
  • International language support: supports international double-byte character sets, enabling users to create PDF documents using nearly any Latin, Cyrillic, or Asian character set.
  • Does not require Adobe Acrobat: users can create PDF files without the need for any additional software.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great alternative to Acrobat, June 30, 2004
By A Customer
This review is from: PDF CREATE V2.0 CD MOST US (CD-ROM)
This gives me PDF 1.5, passwords and other full-Acrobat features at a fraction of the price. I did read another review on its toolbar shortcuts in Outlook - PDF Create! and Adobe Acrobat have the identical behavior and limitation of Word is the editor for Outlook. Overall, I think the batch processing and merging of many documents into a single PDF as the best feature.

5.0 out of 5 stars Adobe look out!, December 9, 2004

kelly scott "kelly" (seattle, washington) - See all my reviews
This review is from: PDF CREATE V2.0 CD MOST US (CD-ROM)
I work at a legal firm and we bought this product instead of Acrobat. The pricing was unbeleiveable. Why does Adobe charge so much for the same thing? Maybe because there was no competition. This reminds me of what happened we Lexus started making luxury cars - BMW and Mercedes were forced to take notice. Isn't being a consumer in this kind of market great?

2.0 out of 5 stars Scansoft has a few issues, July 13, 2005
This review is from: PDF CREATE V2.0 CD MOST US (CD-ROM)
I used scansoft and found a lot of it's features intrusive and troubling. Given the price, I was expecting a much better performance. I've gone to places like freepdf.saucylabs.com and found the freeware there actually worked much better, especially for just outputting word and quickbooks stuff into a PDF.

I have other issues with Scansoft, but in a nutshell, I'd say buyer beware or ask a friend who uses it.
