New from soft Xpansion: Perfect PDF 5 Converter  easily streamline the creation and design of PDF files

(Bochum, January 20th, 2010) - The PDF file format has become the standard for electronic document exchange. Users of PDFs benefit from an exactitude of display and formatting that is both platform-and program-independent and which does not require the program used to generate the original file.

With Perfect PDF 5 Converter, soft Xpansion today releases a comprehensive application to create, convert, design, merge, protect and sign PDF files as well as to fill and save PDF forms. Perfect PDF 5 Converter is a member of the Perfect PDF product family (http://soft-xpansion.com/index.php?p=pdftech/pdf5-prem).

The program includes seamless integration into Microsoft Office, Internet Explorer and Windows Explorer. The integration into Internet Explorer makes it possible to convert web sites and HTML files into PDF quickly and accurately. And the embedding into Windows Explorer offers extensive functionality available from the context menu. Digital signing is performed in step-by-step dialogues. And last but not least, various design objects are available: watermarks, backgrounds, headers and footers or stamps.

ADVANTAGES of PERFECT PDF 5 CONVERTER
* Multiple ways to create and design PDF files   
* Modern user interface (ribbon design, like in Microsoft Office 2007) makes it more easy to navigate through the application: thanks to the new program interface, the functionality and commands are grouped more clearly than in classical Windows applications
* For more complex tasks, a contextual help system and information bars have been integrated into the program. Therefore, in these cases it is not necessary to consult the help file and/or the manual
