There are a wide range of freeware PDF tools available on the market. Indeed, if you're a Mac OS X user, you can produce PDF documents from within the operating system. Instead of printing your page, you can output the document as a PDF.
A PDF is a truly cross-platform document and a file created on a Windows machine can be viewed on a Linux operating system and vice-versa. It's an ideal way to send someone a draft of a newsletter or, if you want to print commercially, a printer will use your PDF document as a master. Commercial printing is a key area where you'd need an app such as eXpert PDF 3 rather than a freeware PDF tool, as it will embed your fonts, images and output your document in a print-quality format. You can add watermarks to your PDF, secure the PDF with encryption and enable other users to add comments, before you go to press.
Luckily we're giving away the full version of eXpert PDF 3, worth £40, and you can download it immediately. Hurry though as this download will not be available after 19th of September 2006!
I wouldn't bother. I thought this would be a reasonable alternative to PDF995 (a free, PDF printer driver which nags a bit but which I've used for ages) but it crashed the first application I tried to use with it. It has certainly not persuaded me to upgrade to the current version.
Not worth the money. (I know it was free. It still wasn't worth it.)
