A series of software tools for transforming PDF files will be getting a more powerful version this month, as Recosoft releases PDF2Office Professional 5.0. These tools are a little bit of magic, converting the PDFs you get from clients and allies into documents you can change and extend with your own programs like Microsoft Word, Excel or InDesign. There’s even a version that changes PDF files into the iWork formats — read for Apple’s Pages documents (for word processing) or Numbers (for spreadsheets).
The upcoming 5.0 release of PDF2Office converts PDF files directly to native Excel spreadsheet formats. It has added formatting options refine to cell formatting and worksheet/workbook composition. Version 5.0 will convert PDF files directly to Microsoft’s Office 2007/2008 (.docx, .pptx and .xlsx) formats.
When collaborating with other small businesses and colleagues, work sometimes arrives in PDF format. The Recosoft tools unlock the basic contents so they can be reshaped for enhancement and more content. If you’ve ever been expected to edit a document that arrives as a PDF, this can save a lot of time. The company also sells a product to transform PDF files to Adobe’s InDesign format.
PDF2Office sells for $129, with multiple-license discounts available.
