Free PDF creator for my windows 8
SandyOnMac- Pros
- I installed this program on my laptop with Windows 8, this free PDF converter just works as expected; the freeware helped me create PDF out of my QuarkXpress.
- Cons
- Feature limited
- Summary
- Great app! Recommend!
Just awful.
cnecne- Pros
- None at all.
- Cons
- Created a garbled pdf from a simple html file (the only text that could be read was the ad it placed on every single page), and now I can't uninstall it.
- Summary
- I can't believe how many download sites are giving this three stars. It's worse than useless, because not only didn't it work on the document I tried it on, now I'm wasting valuable time trying to figure out how to remove it... if I'd only searched a bit more before I tested it, I would have learned this, as it seems queries about how to uninstall go2pdf are quite popular on Google. Ugh.
very rudimentary
blablupp- Pros
- possibly works with some standard/simple applications and, hey, it's free, so, if you pay peanuts, you get monkeys
- Cons
- did not even work with microsoft imaging applications, plus very hard to uninstall, you can download the Go2PDF Removal Tool Go2PDF_Remover.exe from a hidden update site (through Google), but not sure what it exactly does
- Summary
Works well for most User applications
Hoppy2- Pros
- It converted a word document to PDF simply and easily
- Cons
- Not sure if the printer folder is the best place for the program to be accessed from.
- Summary
Does what it claims, quick and well.
blah0077- Pros
- No complaints. Downloaded it, ran it, used it and it worked! Wonderful!
- Cons
- None.
- Summary
It can't be uninstalled
JolileChat- Pros
- It creates PDFs.
- Cons
- You get a PDF document with ads in every page. <p>It can't be uninstalled. You can erase the printer, but a lot of junk will be left inside the HD.
- Summary
Poor Product
rajuonline- Pros
- None
- Cons
- No uninstallers are provided supposedly because it installs as a printer driver. Makes the program look even more suspicous. Personally I could not successfully convert a single file. Microsoft Word crashed when I converted from there. I would recommend that you do not use this program. Similar and better products that I have used are PrimoPDF and CutePDF. Give them a try instead.
- Summary
Does what it should, simple to install and use, small size
baakman- Pros
- I needed a virtual printer to test printer commands with Delphi and make sure the outcome would have looked as it should. This program was ideal, as I didn't have to waste any ink or paper. Plus it's free :-)
- Cons
- Summary
Handy
Raget- Pros
- Adds a pdf printer so it can convert things to pdf, any program that allows printing
- Cons
- Not fully customisable in regards to quality, size etc.
- Summary
Does what it says but not much else
godofodd- Pros
- Quick and easy to install, intuitive to use.
- Cons
- Places ad on finished product. One would be better off using PDF995 (from pdf995.com) as it gives you a browser pop-up ad after pdf is completed (pdf file is ad-free).
