French (FR)PDF Maker for Windows 11/10/8.x to create PDF files
Our PDF Maker for Windows is a highly versatile, easy-to-use Freeware PDFCreator for creating PDF files. The software does not work as a PDF printer, like our popular and free PDF printer solution PDF Printer from 7-PDF. PDF Maker is a nativ PDF converter that supports over 80 file and image formats like Word, Excel, PowerPoint etc. PDF Maker converts them directly to pdf files and this very performant. Try it out!
Creates PDF bookmarks and PDF hyperlinks
From heading formats and links in your office documents, our PDF Maker automatically generates a PDF endpoint link structure. Jump from the PDF headline links directly to the relevant content in your PDF document.
Windows Explorer Integration: Create PDF with a right mouse click!
Our Windows Explorer integration latches into the Windows Explorer context menu after installing our PDF Maker. With the help of the right mouse button, one or more documents and image files of a directory can be converted directly from the Windows Explorer into a PDF.
Create PDF files at the source of the input file
If desired, our PDF Maker creates the PDF automatically and directly where the original file is stored. Especially this function is usually not possible with other PDFCreator solutions because a PDF printer usually does not know the location of the source file. The built-in CommandLine PDF Converter of our PDF Maker, can work recursive and by setting a file filter. So it is possible to convert all *.doc files recursively to PDF!
Powerful PDF API for Developers
Use one of the best PDF conversion engines on the market inside your own applications! Therefore we have developed a PDF API that can be used out of the box for a wide range of modern programming languages like C#, VB.NET, DELPHI, VBA, VB6 and many more. There are also some code samples availabe for that programming languages that can be tried out directly. Easily install our PDF Maker and the PDF API is ready to use after that.
