PDFCreator is ideal for whenever you want to convert a regular document into a PDF. Used it in the past quite a lot, as PDF creation was not part of Office. However, since Microsoft introduced the ability to convert Office documents into PDFs I basically switched back to what it offers. Whenever I need something more advanced I basically use one of the various online PDF manipulation sites (i.e. for merging PDFs), but I guess PDFCreator still has its use for those that need to convert to PDF more often rather than just ocassionally. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 4/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Customer support: 3/5 - Functionality: 4/5 #### Pros PDFCreator was the first open source PDF creator launched, and that gained a lot of popularity over the years. It's the type of program that you install and use whenever you want to convert a regular document into a PDF. Later versions introduced conversion to other formats as well (JPG, PNG, TIF, ...) so it's more than a PDF creator now. It also allows PDF file manipulation as you can combine several documents into a single PDF file and it has support for multiple conversion profiles. #### Cons Still requires an additional download, Ghostscript. Not the most intuitive interface. A bit on the freemium side since they introduced the PDFCreator Plus paid version. --- ### PDF Creator is a powerful work tool that makes it easy for me to edit and create documents. - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Elizabeth Del Valle G. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Company size: 1001-5000 employees - Product usage: Used daily for less than 2 years - Reviewed: May 2018 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. PDF Creator Software has been a determining factor in my professional career in every way. It has given me useful tools that have allowed me to position myself in my place of work. I use it daily and from my experience I can assure that it is the best program currently oriented to the creation and edition of PDF documents. I always recommend it to all my friends and colleagues. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Customer support: 5/5 - Functionality: 4/5 #### Pros The Software PDF Creator undoubtedly remains at the forefront of the programs to edit PDF documents as it offers several tools that facilitate my work. Undoubtedly, the most useful function is that which allows you to click on files and drag them to the work area. That reduces the time to convert one or more files and as if by magic we created our PDF document. I recommend it openly for those who regularly work in this type of format. #### Cons Although it seems to me a powerful program, I believe that its only weakness is the limitation that implies not being able to reproduce or modify documents without the signature appearing in the foreground over the text. This could inconvenience the reader a little and make his experience somewhat heavy. I fully understand that copyright should not be violated, however I believe that alternatives could be sought to guarantee them. --- ### It's very good, easy to use and with additional powerful features; No complications about the format - Overall rating: 4/5 - Reviewer: Ricardo M. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Product usage: Used daily for less than 2 years - Reviewed: March 2018 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you.
