Desktop pdf converter free download

PDF stands for Portable Document Format and it was created by Adobe to ease document exchange. doPDF is a free PDF printer that does what the name suggests, creates PDF files. Once installed it will allow you to convert any type of printable documents to PDF files. doPDF installs itself as a virtual PDF printer driver so after a successful installation will appear in your Printers and Faxes list and also in the list of All Programs. Using doPDF you can convert to PDF in two ways:

• Print to PDF via the virtual printer driver doPDF. You would do this exactly as you print to a regular printer, just the result will be a PDF file, not a printed piece of paper.
• Using the doPDF Startup window. doPDF has an executable file (accessible from the start program group) that you can run in order to start a conversion wizard.

Universal printing

Using doPDF you convert to PDF any type of printable document (i.e. DOCX, XLSX, PPTX, PUBX, HTML, TXT,...), accessing its functionality through a printer driver interface.
Simply click on "Print" from any document-related Windows app to have your PDF created.

Add-ins for Microsoft® Office

doPDF comes with add-ins for Microsoft Office applications (Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Publisher, Visio) that allows one-click conversion to PDF.
A major advantage of the add-ins is the conversion of hidden hyperlinks and easy conversion of bookmarks.

PDF output presets

You can create high quality PDF files (i.e. for printing) or smaller files (i.e. for web publishing), depending on your needs.
To preserve the original design of the document to be converted, you can also embed all used fonts.

After searching about 11 different PDF convertors, I finally found a simple one that does exactly what I need! So many free convertors either won't bring your fonts along, OR (worst of all), don't let you define the page size, for custom publishing situations. THIS ONE DOES BOTH!

Was looking for a way to batch plot AutoCAD drawing to pdf files. Was told about your software. Downloaded it today and what a time saver it is for me. Instead of opening 40 drawings one at a time then converting it to a pdf file, I just batch plot them all. Thanks it works just great.

You have a terrific product. Easy to use and very effective. I’ve been in the computer business since 1980. And for the most part computers annoy me. But every now and then something comes along that makes me smile. doPDF is one of those. Thanks for you work.

I just wanted to say how grateful I am for your 'dopdf' as I have eliminated all the adobe software that is possible from my system as it kept interfering with other programs and seemed to take up more and more processing and disc space yearly. Some things should just remain simple and do what they should do.

Keep up the good work, Softland. If you ever decide to put out a commercial version to rival Adobe Acrobat and Nitro, I think it'll probably be better than both, and I'm prepared to pay for such a program. While I have no problem with free software, I really do prefer to pay developers for their hard work.
