Convert your PDF files to Word documents for easy editing. Because of striking this excellent balance, we highly recommend this 15-day trial for all your PDF conversion needs. Other programs we have tested make this step overly complicated, but Solid Converter held our hand where we needed it and gave us freedom where it was necessary. We were pleased with the simplicity of selecting files and how little we had to do to convert them to PDF. Operating the program is fairly intuitive and the tutorials are intuitive, should you need them. Finally, running along the right side is the Command Center that shows users what file they are converting and where it will end up.

At the bottom of the screen is the Learning Center, with step-by-step tutorials for all processes. The Getting Started section provides four icons for converting and modifying PDFs. Icons are large and cartoonish across the blue-and-white display, and are broken into four sections. The program has an interface that is a little crowded, but still manages to function well. With its flashy design and basic flow, the designers have found a good balance with this excellent program. We recommend this program to all users.Solid Converter promises users one of the easiest programs for PDF conversion on the market. Solid PDF Creator installs politely but leaves a folder behind upon removal. We think this program is a great choice for anyone who wants to create PDF files as easily as they print documents. We liked that it includes a few useful extras without a bunch of pointless filler features. Overall, Solid PDF Creator isn't fancy, but it is true to its name: a solid piece of software that does what it's designed to do without a lot of fuss. The program's built-in Help file is brief but adequate we're glad that it has one, but most users probably won't need to consult it. There are also settings for viewer preferences and document quality. Users can enter the PDF's title, subject, author and keywords, as well as add passwords and encryption.

Users simply select Solid PDF Creator instead of their default printer, and the program opens a dialog allowing users to save the PDF in the desired location. Once the program is installed it appears as a printer in the Print menu of every program that has printing capabilities. Solid PDF Creator is attractive and easy to navigate. This basic piece of software lets users create PDFs with little effort or expertise. There are plenty of utilities out there now that make PDF creation as simple as printing. Contrary to popular belief, the creation of PDF files doesn't require expensive, complex software.
