How I play with my pdf files, its free and easy
By Aditya Gupta
Today is an era of internet, pdf files revolutionized the document sharing on internet but when it comes to play with pdf files, it's expensive and complex.
PDF stands for Portable Document Format. Let me share my methods of playing with pdf files in an easy and absolutely free. Here comes....
- For reading pdf files, many free softwares/readers available on net like Adobe Reader 9.3 or Foxit Reader 3.2 are best among them.
- For converting any MS Office document into pdf file, CutePDF Writer 2.8, PDFCreator 0.9.9 or PrimoPDF 5.0.0.19 are best freeware/open source softwares available on net.
- Is it necessary to install any software on your hard drive to convert into pdf format, answer is simply No. Wonder How ! these online services offering free pdf conversion like pdfonline.com , doc2pdf.net , primopdf.com , freepdfconvert.com etc.
- Optical Character Recognition (OCR) of a pdf file can be done absolutely free & fast by visiting at free-ocr.com . This site also offers OCR of images like JPG, GIF, TIFF or BMP.
- Now, how to search for pdf files on google. When on google.com, click on Advanced Search, then select Adobe Acrobat PDF (.pdf) from drop down for "File type:" option given below. Alternatively, add " filetype:pdf" after your search term in the google search bar. You will get only pdf results.
- Freeware software like PDFTools 1.3, offers functions like encrypt, decrypt, join, split, stamp, create and rearrange a PDF file.
- There is one very cute feature of Adobe Reader that many may not know. It's called "Automatically Scroll". There is no need to manually scroll your file while reading. Goto "View", then select "Automatically Scroll". Using Up arrow and Down arrow, one can decrease/increase the scrolling speed respectively.
I hope these free and easy to use pdf tips/utilities will change you interaction with pdf files in more enjoyable way. |

I like the searching on Google for pdf files information.
This is really good information. The free resources for converting are particularly useful.
I would like to know how to convert a PDF file to a Word DOC or anything other then a PDF file. Anyone know of a program that will do this?
Really good PDF info.
