1.0 out of 5 stars Buggy from end to end, August 8, 2009

This review is from: PDF Converter Pro 6.0 [OLD VERSION] (CD-ROM)
I have used PDF Professional 4 for years with full satisfaction. While it took forever to load, it was great for saving and editing PDF files, much cheaper and better than Acrobat, and with no bugs. I recommended it with enthusiasm to everyone who would listen.
Hoping to get faster loads, I paid for PDF Prof 6 and have regretted it ever since. It does load faster. But unpredictably, it refuses to open PDF files that Acrobat 8 handles just fine. PDF 6 tells me the "file cannot be repaired" but it was PDF Prof 6 itself that damaged the file so that neither PDF Prof 6 nor Acrobat 8 can open it. But on my other computer that doesn't have PDF Prof 6, Acrobat opens it just fine.
Additionally, PDF Prof 6 will unpredictably report "Access Denied" to an HTM file I try to print to PDF, although it prints to my printer just fine.
Nuance has acknowledged receipt of my incident reports but provided no substantive help.
For the sake of your sanity, avoid this piece of...Read more

4.0 out of 5 stars Does the basics well, but be careful during installation, August 25, 2009

Customer review from the Amazon Vine™ Program (What's this?)
Bottom line: this is a decent PDF converter that provides all the functionality one would want for basic/simple PDF creation, editing and manipulation at a price far less than Adobe charges. But, for more advanced usage, especially form-based work, Adobe still has the upper hand.

I'm running it on a XP machine, 2GB ram and performance is pretty good - about the same as Adobe Acrobat version 9. I was pretty concerned about installation after reading some of the reviews of version 5 of this application and the problems people had with other applications malfunctioning after installing PDF Converter. So, I selected the Custom option during install, and unchecked the options to integrate the software with Word, IE, Firefox, etc. That went smoothly and none of my other applications were adversely affected.

It has an activation feature like many programs do these days, but it was unobtrusive. If you uninstall it using the add/remove programs option, it will "unlock" so...Read more

1.0 out of 5 stars Be wary of Nuance Communications, August 27, 2009
RFW - See all my reviews
This review is from: PDF Converter Pro 6.0 [OLD VERSION] (CD-ROM)
When Nuance Communications bought ScanSoft (the developer of PDF Converter), customer service and product support dropped off a cliff. Moreover, when the product is upgraded now, you will pay the same price that everyone else pays for the product NEW, even if you were unlucky enough to have purchased the previous version the day before the new version came out (check the website for confirmation of this pricing identity). The latest version of this product doesn't fix the bugs that existed in the previous version, and if you're looking specifically at converting PDF to WORD, you will be very disappointed. There are other choices for PDF conversion, and other companies far superior to Nuance Communications in reputation and customer/product support and satisfaction. This is a prime example of the big fish swallowing the little fish(which had competed too successfully against the big fish), only to have the big fish reduce product quality and support, in the end. Beware.
