Thread: Nuance PDF Converter 6 Professional

Adobe's PDP is quite popular and is one of the market leaders, considering the company was the pioneer ofthis genre. Over a period of time, PDP has been accepted as an ISO standard, which anyone can manipulate. Nuance PDP Converter Professional 6, the sixth version, is one such solution. The PDP Coverter Professional 6 provides everything required to create, convert and edit PDP files. You can also compile your PDP files in Document Assembly Mode, scan documents directly to PDP formats, compare a PDP file with a word document, secure your documents with 256 bit data encryption, split PDP files by size, Pirefox support and several other features.

Another new and significant feature is the ability to set up PDP packages. A PDF package is essentially a container into which you can drag a selection of files in several formats. It's a somewhat similar to a zip file. An extension of this technique enables the user to archive a complete folder into a single PDF. This is perhaps an ideal way to keep backup of a folder of emails. Nuance claims that it offers a space saving of about 50 per cent.

There are new mark-up tools in the PDF Converter 6. It can create Callout options as well. You can add video and sound files, as well as 3D files that can then be rotated, panned, zoomed, spun and measured on-screen.



The PDF Converter Professional 6 enables you to directly edit PDP files, export pages to Word, and it performs relatively better than Acrobat, however, it relies heavily on using frames within the Word document to maintain the layout of the PDF original. It can also produce documents in Microsoft's XPS format.

The PDF Converter professional 6 is a very good tool for those who need to provide a professional touch to their documents. It performs well and the conversions are fast.

It fulfills most requirements of businesses: creating, editing, converting and sharing PDFs. It is a cost-effective alternative to Adobe's Acrobat Standard and compares well to other PDF solutions.
