This PDF converter impressed us with its speed: In our testing, a 100-page Word document took half a minute. The overall output quality is good, excepting some Web pages. The interface couldn't be simpler: The application installs as if it were a printer, so all you have to do is click the Print option in any program and select Virtual PDF Printer. At the same time, that interface model makes the program inconvenient for converting multiple documents at once. The program supports such features of the PDF format as encryption and document metadata such as author and keyword. It also lets you control document usage, such as disallowing modification. In a nice touch, if the program conflicts with some software you need, you can temporarily disable Virtual PDF Printer without uninstalling it. With its features and its price, this program aims at the professional market.

Speedy and reliable but not a free PDF creator
RogerGuru
Pros
I have tried different document types and with great ease I was able to convert it into the generic format of a PDF file. Anything from pictures to Word documents to graphs and what not can be converted on my Windows 8.
Cons
The program will convert any "printable" type of document into the standard PDF document that can be seen by all people. If a file type cannot be opened nor printed, this program will not convert it to PDF.
Summary
The software makes creating PDF files painlessly easy and can make that document viewable by anyone and everyone on no matter what operating system they use.
Misses most text and graphics
4FreeAmerica
Pros
the download was free
Cons
Tested multiple times to convert receipts on Yahoo email to PDF vice hard copy print and the Virtual PDF Printer saved file was missing almost all of the text and graphics. It would grab the header and maybe a picture or word somewhere in the body, but that was all.

Pros
It's free.
Cons
Haven't been able to make it work. Not sure whether its a download error and/or user error and/or software problem.
Summary
Can't recommend unless you're smarter or more technically proficient than this user.
Simple - not working with special characters(Romanian)
andy_sz
Pros
The most easiest way to use PDF creator. The installation is very easy, is small, very little memory usage.
Cons
When using romanian characters, the document "prints" useless. These makes it not worthy for any computer user that wants to use it without having to pass all over the documents. Uninstalled in 5 min.
Summary
nice idea wont work :(
Kevinchsky

Bunches and overlays text, so it usless!!!!
Summary
Use the trial version to test if it works for you, but test it well befor you buy.
"prints" gibberish
brv-
Pros
installs fast. didn't work though
Cons
I tried to save an html page as pdf. The pdf document was in complete gibberish, and even the page layout was warped. Not sure if that's part of the free trial, but it was useless to me, so I 've uninstalled it.
