I had to merge some PDF files just now and the usual app I use, PDFTK Builder, popped up an error for the first time since I've used it. |

I got mixed results testing this with various PDFs. Some files came out larger, some smaller. Also, if converting text, you'll definitely want to enable Antialias. |
Comic Book Archive Creator is an application for quickly creating Comic Book Archive files for use in such readers as Comic Rack or CDisplay.

Download the ZIP package and extract to a folder of your choice. Launch ComicBookArchiveCreator.exe. Note: To enable CBR generation, you must provide your own Rar.exe file. This is due to the WinRAR license, which prevents distribution. |

Scan2PDF helps you scan paper documents directly into PDF files. It has a non-interactive option so that you can bypass the scanner driver interface during scanning. In addition, you can change the order of scanned images, as well as rotate and delete them.

@PAFuser: it's unfortunate what some people think is obsolete. There are a whole lot of very old programs on my machine that still do a way better job than available alternatives.

I do not disagree, I still use Excel 2003, and it took some work to get it to work correctly on Windows 10 - 64 bit. If program is all you need and works, great. SE-Explorer zip contains SE-MediaPlayer, does not work. Context menu limited to SE-Explorer list, unlike FreeCommanderXE, etc. which include context items added to Windows menu. Future development might have changed this. |

"..the program can import PDF file" |
Universal Viewer can open many different formats including text, binary, rich text, images (including Photoshop), videos, audio, etc. Many office formats including PDF, DJVU, and MS Word / Excel. The program can open large text files, such as log files, very quickly and without eating memory.

This is the fastest PDF viewer. Awesome for high graphics magagine kind of PDFs. I have a lower mid range laptop. Universal viewer throws sumatra, pdfxcange, foxit out of water when it comes to speed of loading one after another high graphics page. And it's the lightest of all the PDF viewers I have tested, uses minimal CPU unlike others I have mentioned.

Ignore my previous comment. I am an idiot. It actually uses an old version of Sumatra, which was faster and lighter. |
NW Docx Converter (formerly Docx2Rtf) is a feature-rich file conversion and PDF tool set. The program can convert from a variety of formats including Word 2007-format DOCX/DOTX to RTF or PDF format. The program can also open, modify, view, print, and convert to PDF from many file types including LibreOffice SXW/ODT, HTML, RTF, Palm, PhotoShop, TIFF, PDF, and many more. The program can even rearrange and delete PDF file pages.
Note that while converted formatting and images are not always identical to their original versions, basic formatting and information are maintained. The program is also capable of displaying a page-by-page layout view of what was retrieved and allows sending to the printer or batch-conversion of entire folders via the command line.
Functional in Linux using Wine.
NOTE: Site offline, linking to Archive.org.

Also leaves C:\Documents and Settings\{user}\Application Data\NwDocx\document.xml and document.xml.rels that contain all of the information in the last document opened !!!!! This is NOT nice !!!!!

Comment: viewing quality of several DOC and DOCX format files was fairly simple. Both LibreOffice and AbiWord seemed like better converters, although this would be great for getting at the document's core text. |
PDF Password Remover disables restrictions from protected PDF files that prevent capabilities such as printing and modification. The program requires the user password in order to remove restrictions and does not include a password audit tool.
Note: Program has gone cripplware and will only work on the first page of a PDF. Seeking a mirror for the last available freeware version.
