PDF Converter2.3

Text documents don’t necessarily have to be limited to text, with some specialized formats like PDF which also include pictures and other types of content. To help you process PDF files, PDF Converter is a handy tool you might want to keep around to be able to extract pages and save them under a variety of different formats.

Convert one or more PDF files

The visual design is pretty intuitive, letting individuals of all levels of experience quickly get the hang of things. A couple of tabs neatly separate the two available modes, such as batch and single files. Output settings are the same, so it only depends on the number of documents you want to process.Needless to say that the application only accepts PDF as input, which can either be dragged over the main window, or imported using the browse dialog. It’s also best to specify a destination, even though the corresponding folder shows up when the process is done. Additional options can be used to have the computer shut down when done, and ask whether to overwrite existing files.

Output and quality options

There are multiple types of output file formats to which to convert a PDF document. These are all held in a drop-down menu, with options like HTML, text only, BMP, JPG, PNG, WMF, as well as single or multi page TIFF. Depending on your selection different quality options shows up if available.Note that all files added in batch mode get converted to one single type of output, so you can’t choose an individual type for each file. When in single mode, there’s also the possibility to extract specific pages by simply filling in values for first and last page.

On an ending note

In conclusion, PDF Converter is a neat application with which to extract all or specific pages from PDF documents and save them as text or pictures. The two modes are pretty intuitive by design, while quality options let you get just the right type of content out of PDF files.
