Best option for printing to PDF

Post by gopher_everett »

Hello,

Does PDF-XChange Editor include a utility for printing to PDF? If not, what app/utility is recommended for doing so?

I'm not referring to printing (eg to a laser printer) a file that is already a PDF, but saving a local file or download to a PDF format.

I'm currently running PDF-XChange Editor Version: 6.0 (Build 320.1).

Thanks

1) With PDF-XChange Editor you can open different image formats and also open Word, Excel, PowerPoint and Visio files.
After opening, you can save them to PDF format (in case you have a payed license for PDF-XChange Editor).
In this last case (payed version), you can also use the included PDF-XChange LITE printer, to print to PDF.

2) For non-commercial use, you can use the PDF-XChange LITE Free printer.
By printing from whatever application to that printer, you can create a new PDF.

IMPORTANT REMARK:
The PDF-XChange LITE printer included in the installation package of PDF-XChange Editor is NOT the Free version.
You must download and install the Free version separately.

And then there are also several free PDF printer products that are all based on Ghostscript. My current personal favorite ends with a number in its name.

Thank you.
