This program seems as powerful as Adobe Acrobat without the huge cost. DocuCom PDF Gold creates and edits PDF documents from scratch, and includes many key features. You can create text boxes, add links or images, make forms or watermarks, and even include JavaScripts. Any file that's ready to print also can be converted into a PDF file in an instant. During our tests, we were able to convert documents with little fuss. A few documents, however, weren't perfect, as we discovered some background images had shifted. DocuCom PDF Gold is similar to Adobe Acrobat in that its interface is well-organized and easy to use. Also, the program offers a convenient option of converting or merging documents straight from the Windows Explorer window--you don't even have to open the program. Packed with features, DocuCom PDF Gold is a good choice for people who frequently work with PDF files.

We love the perfect auto-save & combine functions

Pros
We really like the way that PDF-Direct lets you combine and save files and having the source directory as a pull-down for where you want the file to go. The automatic file name is also nice.
Cons
Summary
Cannot be activated on WinXP - steer clear!

Pros
Looks nice, seems to do a good job of making pdf files and allowing you to edit them, IN THE TRIAL VERSION.
Cons
1. you get nothing for your $100. The software cannot be activated, so you're left with a permanent "trial" watermark on all your documents. <p> <p>2. Absolutely nothing you can do about it - noted several other users with the same issues on Zeon's forum, with no replies to their queries 6 months later. FAQ nonetheless does not address this problem. No support available. Should have known better than to get a product from a foreign country with no support info. A tough $100 lesson learned. <p> <p>Definitely spend the extra cash and get a true adobe product, or at least be VERY careful to buy software only from a place with some form of customer support, hopefully in this country so you have at least a mailing address available. <p> <p>I'm out $100 and still have to start over looking for a pdf solution.

Summary
Once again, a terrible recommendation by CNET
zridlingAugust 2, 2005
Pros
None.
Cons
Wow, where to start? Even CNET editors admit problems with DocuCom, but then turn around and give it a 4/5! DocuCom could not convert colored text; watermarks magically disappeared; and background images consistently shift outside the page margins; documents larger than 300k took far too long to convert, and it locked up with a 1Mb file with graphics; not to mention the steep price. The market is flooded with PDF apps; don't choose DocuCom -- you can do much better with a small amount of research.
Summary
Watermark wounds it's appeal, failing to add hyperlinks kills it

fairly fast conversion, still a pain on large files
