The article recommends a Web site for free computer software for portable document format (PDF) files applications. The service at the Create Adobe PDF Online limits each PDF to 100 megabyte and 50 uploaded pages and it times out after 10 minutes of processing per file. One can also combine or extract PDF and add backgrounds, letterheads and forms to them. CutePDF lacks many of Acrobat's advanced tools, such as integration with Microsoft Word, print and copy controls and a Send to PDF option for right-click menu. Jaws PDF Creator adds 128-bit encryption of the files and provides some control over printing and editing.
