Nitro PDF Professional 8.1.1.3

Nitro PDF Professional Editor's Review

Quickly and easily create industry compatible PDF's with this must have Windows utility.

Creating PDF's is pretty common place now-a-days. There are a number of different products that you can download and install to quickly "print" to PDF. Having in one is important, as sharing information in a non-editable format is often important.  However, sometimes, you need to edit those PDF's you get. It's at times like those that I really like using Nitro PDF Professional. It's on my short list of must have Windows apps.

Nitro Pro lets you quickly create, convert, combine, edit, sign, and share 100% industry-standard PDF files. It's easy-to-use PDF tools make working with digital documents pain free. You can save time and effort with easy-to-use PDF creation tools that don’t require you to open a file before converting it.

One of Nitro PDF Pro's best features is its tight integration with Microsoft Windows. This integration means you can create PDF files the way you prefer, such as drag and drop, right click, or within the application. The conversion process is very easy.  You simply drag files from within Windows Explorer or the Desktop into Nitro Pro. Its integration also extends to Microsoft Office.  You can print to PDF from the ribbon toolbar in Microsoft Word, Excel, and PowerPoint.  If needed, Nitro PDF Pro also supports batch convert collections of different files – like reports, spreadsheets, drawings, and presentations – all in one task. It's easy to combine documents into a searchable, easy-to-share PDF file.

Nitro PDF Pro is 100% compatible and ISO compliant with not only Adobe's PDF format, but the files it creates can be seamlessly interchanged between Nitro and Adobe tools.  Nitro's output can be fully indexed and searched like any and every other PDF file you find on the internet today. It's really, just that easy.

Pros: Affordable, easy to use, industry compliant output.

Con’s: Integration and import features require appropriate hardware and software, not included with Nitro PDF Pro

Conclusion: Editing PDF files isn't always easy; and honestly, it's not supposed to be. PDF's are supposed to be mirror images of work files but prevent the reader from modifying the data. In those occasions where you do need to edit and recreate them, finding an affordable tool was always a bit of a challenge.  Acrobat Professional has historically been expensive; and while Adobe has lowered the price over the years, affordable alternatives with equivalent or enhanced functionality are also available.
Nitro PDF Professional is one of the best PDF creation and editing tools available on the internet. If you're in the market for one, you'd be hard pressed to find a better alternative.
