Rating and comments for PDFCreator

PDF-Output isn't always accurate, the quality of PDFs produced with OpenOffice is better. Anyway, it's free and good enough for most purposes.

good

I find the features better than average and get very good results for standard pdf creation.

I can not go together with Anonymous on Januar 4, 2007. I use PDFCreator because OOo fails on specific Fonts (Adobe pfm/pfb) and has an enourmous filesize on it's PDFs. PDFCreator is a top-performer here: Small filesize and all Fonts are displayed.

Some fonts reproduced in the PDF document are not particularly sharp but overall, a great tool!

Awesome. I use OpenOffice.org as my office suite of choice. But that does me no good inside something like Firefox or Internet Explorer. At work, I luckily have a copy of Acrobat 7.0 and I can use its Distiller for that. At home, I am not spending that sort of money for it. I can print a website (like an order confirmation or email or something) to a PDF using PDFCreator. Not requiring a printer connected to my non-work systems is fantastic.

this is _not_ open source, so remove this tool or at least correct the description

It's open source now. At least, it had an option to download the source code when I went to download it.

verygood

For the simple purpose of combining multiple document types, this program works like a charm. Within 5 minutes of installation, I figured out how to combine documents and make a PDF from Word and Open Office.

Made a PDF from M$Publisher no problems. Only used once - but it is so easy - I'll be making more for the sake of it!

I like the sound of the toolbar for making web pages PDF also, but have yet to try it.

good for it's purpose: A virtual pdf printer under M$ Window$

Perfect tool! It's updated very often, adding new features

Best solution on windows environment. Can generate other formats than PDF.

I have used it for years and it has always worked perfectly and fulfilled my needs.
