The application PDF Converter 2.11 converts a lot of text file formats into PDF.

Pros: PDF Converter converts 100 file formats to PDF including searchable Word to PDF, TXT to PDF, PSD to PDF , DWF to PDF, EMF to PDF , TIF to PDF , PNG to PDF , GIF to PDF , PCD to PDF , PSP to PDF , EPS to PDF , TGA to PDF , BMP to PDF , ICO to PDF, DWG to PDF, DXF to PDF, CMW to PDF, IMG to PDF, IFF to PDF, J2K to PDF, JP2 to PDF, PSP to PDF, EPS to PDF, WMF to PDF, DCR to PDF, PPM to PDF, PTK to PDF, PCD to PDF, JBG to PDF. This feature alone, if all these options work without a problem, makes it a very useful package. Several options we tried worked without trouble.

PDF Converter sets itself up as a printer option. All that one needs to do is open the file to be converted and command a print while choosing the PDF Converter option. An options screen appears, one could set several options here or let the default settings take effect. Options available include a set of security settings and authoring details. Conversion happens without any problems.

Cons: Files converted can be saved at various levels of Acrobat compatibility. Unfortunately compatibility with reader version 5.0 is the latest whereas current level of the reader is 8.0.

Overall a very simple to use package, the PDF converter 2.11 has a nice interface too. 4 star quality.
