How Does PDFPublisher.com Fare Against Its Competitors?

The following is a sponsored guest post by PDFPublisher.com

At first glance, a PDF converter sounds like a trivial app, but it offers a huge benefit for both personal and commercial users alike: there’s no need to download an Adobe Acrobat on your PC. This also means you can now convert compatible files from any platforms including mobile devices to PDF, saving your teeny phone more space.

These and more have made these PDF converters more popular than ever, but with so many options, which one is the best? To begin, let’s compare PDFPublisher.com with its competitors:

Compatible File Formats

This refers to the types of files you can convert to PDF using the program. PDFPublisher.com works with these types of files: Word (docx, doc, rtf), Excel (csv), Powerpoint (pptx, ppt). Unlike other sites, PDFPublisher.com can turn webpages into PDF with quite impressive output. Nevertheless, most are pretty standard formats among other websites except for GIRDAC, which can also deal with images, which is helpful since some photos render poorly when seen in other programs or devices.

Compared to other PDF converters, the files uploaded or converted by PDFPublisher.com can also render seamlessly in Google Drive and Dropbox, removing the need to spend for a cloud.

PDF Creation Features

Make no mistake about it: creating PDFs straight from these types of websites is not the same as working in Adobe Acrobat, so expect some learning curve. The output may also be likely better in the latter than in PDFPublisher.com, but it will be enough if you don’t want to deal with downloading Acrobat Reader.

It comes with certain features including Fill-in PDF Form, Password-protected PDF, Edit without Source File, and Merge Documents. These make PDFPublisher.com an ideal choice than Able2Extract PDF Convert 8, although the latter has an edge as far as image conversion is concerned because of OCR support. Some may say that Nitro Pro has an upper hand, but this is specifically designed for professional use and thus capable of collaboration and batch work, and it may suffer from sluggishness.

Cost

Zamzar is a good competitor of PDFPublisher.com in this area, since it’s free and works on multiple formats and conversions. However, there’s a major issue with privacy and corruption of files. Probably one of the most expensive is Flip Builder, but it’s more designed for creating e-books.

Some of the options too charge users per program download. PDFPublisher.com on demand basis, $0.05 per document, or each month without contracts for unlimited usage. This means after a month, you have the option to renew, giving you more freedom to weigh your options. Although it doesn’t have a free trial version or a money-back guarantee, it allows users up to 10 documents. Plus, there’s no software to download.

Based on these criteria, which one will you pick?
