### "Solution to create pdf files without complications or setbacks."

August 7, 2018

5.0

This program helps me to pass any pdf file in a fast and simple way and reduce its size considerably to make viable the sending by email or save it in a pendrive.

Pros

I like it because it creates the pdf quickly and allows me to merge the documents in the print queue, so that an excel sheet and a word document can be seen in the same pdf document.

Cons

For what it was designed, it complies with the work in the creation of PDF documents without problems, I do not find problems.

### "Great way to make PDFs "

December 21, 2022

5.0

Pros

If you need to make multiple PDFs this is one of the best ways to go about it. One of my favorite things is that you can use both JPG and PDF files then easily can convert them to PDF. Which is one of the main reasons for using it. The interface is very much straight forward and easy to use.

Cons

It can be very slow to install compared to other programs.

### "Secure your PDF documents with this incredible application"

April 18, 2019

4.0

I used it to create pdfs of my word writings, especially those that I must send to third parties apart from my boss. This application gives me assurance that the document will not be modified in any way.

Pros

It is an easy to use, fast and secure tool for managing your documents, you can create and modify PDF files and share them with others via email or cloud service.

Cons

I've used it a few times and it's been effective, there's nothing I dislike.

This is a great tool. Adding, deleting pages, merging files, editing PDFs are all enabled by this app. And it is free

### "My experience with pdf creator"

July 4, 2021

4.0

Pros

the software is lightweight and its file conversion is fast and intuitive, anyone who has a little notion of computing can mecher in their tools.

Cons

For the conversion of a file to pdf this tool is not very good at conversion because it sins in the quality of documents often misconfigures in the formatting of the original text of the file.

### "Not the best choice"

December 23, 2018

3.0

Pros

I like the fact that it allows me to create pdfs when I need to, something I'd have to pay a lot more for using Adobe systems.

Cons

I hate the inclusion of adware, toolbars, etc. I know this company needs to make money, but the method of doing so drives me away quickly.
