Key Features
Universal Format Support
Converts Microsoft Office (Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Visio, Publisher, Works), OpenOffice (Writer, Calc, Impress, Draw), RTF, WordPerfect (v1–11), Lotus, AbiWord, PDF, and more — the most comprehensive input format support of any PDF creator on Mac.
Image & RAW Photo to PDF
Converts JPEG, JPEG2000, PNG, TIFF, BMP, GIF, PSD, SVG, WMF, EMF, PICT, and virtually all DSLR RAW camera formats into PDF — with colour space control (RGB, CMYK, Grayscale), JPEG compression, and image downsampling.
Text & Source Code to PDF
Convert plain text (.txt, .log, .xml), source code (.m, .c, .cpp, .java, .h), and script files (.py, .sh, .php) into styled PDFs with custom font, size, and colour attributes applied per export.
Spreadsheet PDF Export
Advanced spreadsheet export options including page size and margin overrides, column headers and gridline control, page order settings, and three scaling modes — reduce/enlarge, fit to width/height, or fit to number of pages.
Fillable PDF Form Creation
Turn forms created in Word, Excel, or other applications into intelligent fillable PDFs — with submit format options including FDF, PDF, HTML, and XML.
Watermark Signing
Add custom watermarks to all exported PDFs with control over orientation and colour — brand, classify, or protect documents during the conversion process.
PDF/A & Tagged PDF Export
Export as PDF/A-1a for long-term archival compliance, or as Tagged PDF for accessibility and screen reader support. Export bookmarks, comments, and presentation notes pages.
PDF Initial View & UI Options
Define exactly how recipients see your PDF on open — navigation panel, page layout, magnification, full screen mode, transition effects from presentations, and which UI elements are visible or hidden.
AES-256 Encryption & Security
Set open and permission passwords with file restriction controls. Supports RC4-128, AES-128, and AES-256 encryption — applied across all exported PDFs simultaneously in batch.
Merge, Batch Export & Metadata
Combine any mix of documents, images, and files into a single PDF with merged bookmarks — or export each individually. Batch-edit Title, Author, Subject, and Keywords across all output files.
