I work on pdf format, PDF Creator makes it easy, by simply transforming the file to pdf.
PDF Creator is easy to use. Highly recommended for those who works in this format. It easily transforms the word document, excel , PowerPoint to pdf format. We can also use password to open the pdf file, once they are converted.
Seems fine for me, no issues till now.

PDF Creator is a good free PDF converter, many PDF converters are either have an advertisement or not free.
PDF Creator is free to use, it's not easy to find a free and easy to use PDF converter. It can convert PDF documents to PDF, JPG, PNG, TIF formate, cover almost all kinds of document
Sometime when I covert the document to PNG, TIF formate, I couldn't open the file anymore. Maybe I did something wrong. Keep the good quality

"PDF Creator" not only allows to create PDF files but also to protect them, and limit the file only to the visualization; This is fantastic if you send documents that can be plagiarized, so with PDF Creator you can be calmer when sending a PDF.
The virtual printer PDFCREATOR integrates very well with the other software, allows to improve the configuration of the output file. It works for more than 20 different extensions. The action of clicking the file and dragging, and automatically edit it is very good. In the profile system it can be copied in Flash Memory to be used in another PC. You can select the security level of the encryption (low, medium and high) according to the need and edit the permissions on the document (printing, copying, editing). Convincing two PDF files is extremely easy, just select right click and open them with PDFCREATOR, then join lessons, and that's it!
If you want to create a single PDF document with several non-PDF files, it does not work as well, since you must first open all the files in your default programs, this can take a long time and is complicated. Junfo is installed with PDF Architect, this is not optional.

Fast to use, editing PDF
It's easy to use and you can make, edit, append and replace many things in a pdf. It's important to fix errors and make best pdf for sharing.
Can be heavy in (mb) compared with other software. Sometimes has problems integrating with other software like web browsers or office softwares.

It's a very easy platform for printing files to pdf or other types of files, like jpg. There are also some tools that allow the user to easily change resolution or alter pdf options. For example, the user can add some security password protection or decide whether to compress images to create a smaller document. Functionally the software is fairly easy to use and interact with from other software platforms, like Microsoft products or anything that communicates with print drivers.
There are not enough options for pdf creation. I would like to not only create, but also edit pdf files once they're created. My biggest problem is really with the process of creating a pdf. First I select print document using pdf creator, then a window pops up for me to create the pdf, along with options, and then the pdf opens. I wish we could skip some of the intermediate windows and just have the document print to pdf assuming all of the pre-programmed options

Until I started using PDF Creator I was often converting files to PDF in browser by uploading a file in a format such as .doc or .jpg and then downloading a converted PDF, but I was often concerned about the safety of doing this (i.e. possibly downloading a virus). With PDF Creator I was able to get around this, and also print to PDF even when not connected to the internet.
It allows printing to PDF format easily and is available as a free download that can be used indefinitely.
Some of the default settings of PDF creator can be a little annoying and it can be hard at first to find out how to change these settings.

It is a software that allows us to print PDF files or save a printable file as PDF, which means that you can convert almost any file to portable document format (PDF), accessible everywhere at any time.
It is quite easy and fast, offer several options to protect your documents, such as the possibility of adding watermark, can significantly compress the size of the document, PDF files can be viewed on any device, regardless of hardware, software or operating system used to create and visualize them.
For me its only disadvantage is that PDF is not an editable format document, even when it reproduces exactly what we can see in a Microsoft Word document, for example. It is practically impossible to edit a PDF simply because it is an image of a document.

Easy and quick creation of PDF files.
It does its job easily and consistently every time. I have never had any issues with it and I am able to customize file settings when converting.
I haven't had any actual issues with the software nor needed to contact support. The only thing I don't care about is the visual interface of the save screen but that is just a cosmetic thing and it doesn't affect functionality.

Convert my work files to pdf format
It is a very fast program for the transformation of documents, images or another type of file to pdf format.
It is not compatible with all office applications, it may have errors in the transformation in some cases.

A good tool for PDF creation and conversion. The free version has some limitations, but generally speaking, it is a good tool.
A good PDF tool, it supports merging different files into one. You can easily convert different formats to PDF, also protect them with a password.
The free version of PDFCreator has advertisements, it does not support PDF compression and file encryption. It is not possible to edit PDF.

It is a great tool to create PDF documents.
I love the possibility it gives me to create PDF files. It's free and easy to use. It allows converting documents in Word and Excel format to PDF format.
From my point of view it has as a disadvantage the impossibility of editing texts, images, tables or graphics present in your PDF files.

The possibilty to save and share the PDF file without payments or annoying publicty, in only one click you have the PDF file ready for use it.
The best tool to transform and save your PDF files, without any complication, you just install and start using, I use this app a lot, with all my files, specially documents because I prefer to save them in PDF than another format like .doc, I usually save my presentations too and all the images that I use for work, becuase are lightweight and easy to share through email.
