Portable Document Format (PDF) has became a common document format for exchanging and transferring files due to it's security features, compact size and compatibility on any computer. With only a free PDF Reader these files can be presented with the original content and format on any system with no exceptions. So when people finish creating files in some document processing tools such as MS Office Word, Excel and PowerPoint, they generally save them as PDF files and transfer them to other people for sharing.

That is why we always come across PDF files. Have you experienced that you need to modify and reuse the content of them in some case? Since PDF editors like Adobe Acrobat are all expensive and overcomplicated to use, it is more skilled and expedient for most of us to edit or reuse PDF files in their original format.

Now we are delighted to giveaway 25 licenses of AnyBizSoft 5-in-1 PDF Converter to our readers each worth $59.95 sponsored by AnyBizSoft Studio, a software development company focused on PDF solutions.
