Good morning everybody. I'm looking for reasonably priced software that can create searchable .pdf files from Word documents with these features: - doc up to 1000 pages - 2 columns - bilingual text - pdf can be password-protected. Acrobat Professional would be to expensive. Thanks for any suggestions offered.

pdf creator is great, but I am not sure the file can be password protected. No pb with the other requirements. In fact, you create your document in whatever printable format and style (word, excel, html) and to create the pdf file you "print" the document using a virtual pdf printer - like the "printing into file" feature. | | | Try Open Office | Sep 19, 2007 |
OO is a very capable editing software, which has nearly the same functions as Word, Excel, Power Point, etc, and can replace them. OO is for free. And OO has 'Export as pdf..." function inbuilt, with options for password, content ciphering, etc. HTH AM | |

Dear Mr. Mierzejewski, I already work with Star Office 1.0. Pdf export is possible but import corrupts long multi-column Word docs. Password function and access control also not available. If the OO you suggest is the same, trial should not be useful. However, if it is different from Star Office, it might be worth a try. Any idea? Tahnks. Dear Mr. Subali, I've downloaded your suggestion and will try. Thanks in advance. M.A.T. | | | pdf creator has the security option | Sep 19, 2007 |
in fact it is quite interesting. A friend of mine has a tool to break passwords in pdf files and it took quite a while to break this one, and only because the password was short. It also seems that it can handle quite complicated files in Word, so go ahead and try. Piotr | | | hazmatgerman (X) Local time: 08:02 English to German TOPIC STARTER
