Review
This is a quick review
pdfFactory allows printing to paper or PDF without printing twice. Acrobat is not needed for printing.
pdfFactory combines multiple documents into a single PDF. It increases the convenience of document delivery by having a single PDF that contains material from different sources. Just keep printing documents to pdfFactory and they will automatically be combined.
The Preview option allows a quick and accurate previewing of the PDF, including up to 400% zoom, without saving the file first and without opening Acrobat.
The Embedding Font capability ensures that original fonts used in a document are displayed even if the reader of the PDF does not have the fonts installed on his or her computer.
You also can insert or delete a page of unwanted material, before the PDF is created. This is especially useful when creating PDFs from long reports, email and web pages.
One mouse click is enough to send the PDFs through your default email program. Also copies PDF to clipboard for pasting into existing email.
The following full-length review applies to version 2.1
pdfFactory from FinePrint Software creates a PDF document or prints to paper without needing any Acrobat software installed.
The application works inserting itself into the "Print" dialog box of all the programs installed on the user computer.
Within any program, with an open document, by clicking on the "Print" option, user gets the possibility of "printing" to pdfFactory. By choosing this option, pdfFactory displays a dialog window taht starts with the document 'preview' section where the user can choose 'view' the PDF document and apply deep zoom to it, 'save' the original document in a PDF format (PDF file), as well as 'send' it by email as an attached PDF file, directly print the document or close the dialog.
Before selecting any of these commands, user can set different options such as general settings, fonts, document info and security, links, etc. The application 'Auto saves' the treated documents, before user sets options, and allows later on these files to be deleted.
The application can merge various PDF documents for easying the delivering by sending just a single document (created out of different selected PDF single documents).
The 'preview' function is very useful for watching documents without opening any Acrobat application, and zoom to it up to 400 times.
pdfFactory can control access to the PDF files protecting with password and encrypting them to avoid anybody to print or copy PDF files (graphics and text), or editing |
- Easy to operate, the application gets inserted within the "Print" context menu of all installed applications.
