About doPDF
Short overview of doPDFPDF stands for Portable Document Format and it was created by Adobe to ease document exchange. doPDF is a free PDF printer that does what the name suggests, creates PDF files. Once installed it will allow you to convert any type of printable documents to PDF files.
doPDF installs itself as a virtual PDF printer driver so after a successful installation will appear in your Printers and Faxes list and also in the list of All Programs.
With it you can convert your Word documents, Excel sheets, PowerPoint presentations, Publisher presentations, Visio drawings, Outlook emails, AutoCad drawings, company's reports, contracts, workflows, agreements, marketing plans, forms, products list, price list, charts, emails or web pages - and basically any type of printable document.
Using doPDF you can convert to PDF in two ways, via the Print option in your document or using the Startup window.
Print to PDF via the virtual printer driver doPDF.
You would do this exactly as you print to a regular printer, just the result will be a PDF file, not a printed piece of paper.
Using the doPDF Startup window.
doPDF has an executable file (accessible from the start program group) that you can run in order to start a conversion wizard.
Main features
What makes doPDF stand from the crowdIt's simple and fast
You just have to select WHAT document to convert and WHERE to save it. doPDF creates the PDF very fast and opens it with the default PDF viewer.
Saves you money
doPDF is a PDF converter free for both commercial/business and personal use. Won't cost you a dime to make PDF files (but we'll love you even more if you upgrade to novaPDF).
32-bit and 64-bit support
Same setup can be used to install doPDF on both 32 and 64-bit Windows operating systems.
Universal
You can convert to PDF any type of printable document (i.e. DOC, XLS, PPT, PUB, DOCX, XLSX, PPTX, PUBX, HTML, TXT,...).
No GhostScript
Doesn’t require 3rd party programs to make PDF files such as GhostScript. This makes the setup file to be incredibly small compared to other free PDF creator programs.

You can search for text within the created PDF file (and search engines will also index the text from the PDF).
Multi-language
doPDF is the ONLY free pdf maker whose interface is currently available in 33 different languages and has a website translated in 30 (and growing, thanks to our translators).
Barely uses any computer resources
Compared to other free PDF creator software, doPDF barely uses any memory or CPU resources when doing the actual conversion to PDF.
Do your part in saving the planet
Instead of consuming paper to print your document, why not create a PDF file out of it and spare a couple of planet-saving trees?

You can select a predefined page size for the resulting PDF file such as: A0, A1, A2, A3, A4, A5, A6, B4/5, Letter, Legal, Executive, Envelope DL/C5/B5/Monarch/#10, ANSI, ARCH (50 different formats available)
PDF output presets
You can create high quality PDF files (i.e. for printing) or smaller files (i.e. for web publishing), depending on your needs. You can also choose to balance the two options by using the medium quality preset.
Automatic updates
