A-PDF Creator functions as a virtual printer driver within Microsoft Windows, allowing users to generate professional-quality PDF documents from any application that supports printing. Its primary purpose is to facilitate easy electronic document exchange, independent of the original creation environment. This utility is particularly beneficial for companies looking to publish various documents, such as reports, marketing plans, price lists, and contracts, in a portable electronic format. The software installs seamlessly as a printer driver, appearing as "A-PDF Creator" in the Printer & Fax folder, making PDF creation as simple as printing to a standard printer. It is designed for ease of use, requiring no complex program learning; users simply select the "A-PDF Creator" printer and click OK. It supports a wide array of printable Windows document types, including DOC, DOCX, PPT, PPTX, XLS, XLSX, PUB, DWG, HTML, MHTML, and TXT. A-PDF Creator also offers significant cost savings as a standalone program, eliminating the need for expensive alternatives like Adobe Acrobat Pro.
