Solid Converter PDF v2.0: The Most Comprehensive PDF Conversion Tool Available

New converter product easily unlocks PDF documents for use in Microsoft Word or other word processing programs

SolidDocuments™ today announced the release of Solid Converter® PDF to Word, version 2.0. Solid Converter PDF to Word converts PDF files into Microsoft® Word (DOC) or Rich Text Format (RTF) documents, allowing easy access to and editing of content from PDF files. The program recovers the text, graphics, and formatting of the original PDF file without requiring installation of Adobe® Acrobat® or Microsoft Word. With the launch of version 2.0, Solid Converter PDF to Word is the most comprehensive PDF conversion tool in its category.

How it Works

Users simply select the PDF file to be converted and Solid Converter PDF to Word instantly recovers the content for them. This saves the user from hours of retyping information and reformatting it. When opening PDF files with Microsoft Word, the content maintains its formatting as an editable Word document, preserving fonts, column settings, text colors, images and font styles and sizing.

When launched from the Start menu Solid Converter displays a simple interface with a file explorer, letting the user browse for PDF files to convert. Solid Converter PDF to Word also easily integrates into Microsoft Word, Adobe Acrobat and Windows Explorer as a plug-in.

In addition, a conversion wizard can help users through the process, with the ability to choose from a rich set of configurable options. These options allow users to tailor the PDF conversion process for specific types of documents.

Solid Converter PDF to Word also has the power to extract images and save them directly into a file folder in a variety of formats, including JPEG, Bitmap, PNG, and others.

Whether a user has a 2-page tax form, a 20-page business report, or a 200-page process document, Solid Converter PDF to Word recovers the content seamlessly. Users save time, ink, paper, and money.

Kudos and Comments

In less than three months, Solid Converter PDF to Word has been downloaded more than 75,000 times from CNET’s Download.com and has received their 5-Star Rating, making SolidConverter PDF to Word an industry standard for conversion of PDF documents.

“The PDF file format has truly grown into a universal medium for sharing information, and has historically served as a way to view and print electronic documents,” said Michael Cartwright, of Solid Documents. “But similar to printed documents, a PDF file cannot easily be edited or reused without investing in complicated software that can be quite pricey. Solid Converter PDF to Word was designed for those looking for an elegant and affordable application for the task of recovering content locked in a PDF.”

“SolidConverter PDF to Word works seamlessly,” said Paul Hirner, Partner at thinkSmart Consulting, a San Francisco-based business intelligence company, “It has already saved us many hours of time and effort.”

New Features

New to the product is improved content and formatting recovery, as well as enhanced graphics support with vector-to-vector image conversion that improves the ability to edit recovered images. In addition, version 2.0 includes the ability to save Word documents to PDF file format, thus providing a complete tool that enhances information sharing and collaboration. The option to recover content in Rich Text Format ensures the product can be used with just about any word processing program.

Version 2.0 features include:

• Recovers vector and bitmap images
• Converts the entire PDF file at once, or, you can choose specific pages to be recovered
