About
PDFCreator automates document output for Windows-based business environments, handling the full creation pipeline from conversion to delivery. It converts print output from any application into PDF, JPG, PNG, or TIF using a virtual printer driver, with no changes to existing workflows required.
Businesses use PDFCreator to automate repetitive document tasks: output is captured, formatted, named, secured, and routed based on configurable profiles. Use cases include automated report generation, batch document processing, and compliant document delivery in regulated industries.
Key capabilities: encryption, password protection, digital signing, watermarking, MSI deployment, GPO support, and centralized profile management. Compatible with Word, Excel, web browsers, ERP systems, and any Windows print-enabled application.
Available in a free edition for individual, non-commercial use and three paid editions for business, terminal server, and enterprise deployments.
