Using Primo from anywhere

What millions of people using PrimoPDF don’t realize is that our PDF creation capabilities are not just limited to Windows-based desktop computers. With our PrimoOnline you can, in fact, create PDF files from virtually any platform — Mac, Linux, Unix, and more — with no more than a web browser and an email address.

As the screenshot below shows, the service is dead simple. You enter the email address you’d like the newly created PDF file sent to. Select the file to convert, by either uploading it or directing PrimoOnline to a URL location on the Web. And then click the Create PDF button. In a minute or two you’ll have your PDF, without installing anything or leaving your browser.

PrimoOnline 2.0 is on our product release roadmap so those of you who like the online service can look forward to some new features coming soon. I can’t say too much on what’s coming just yet, but I can say that we have localization coming — so (just like our tools to convert PDF to Word and PDF to Excel) if your first language is German, French, Spanish, Italian, or Dutch, you’ll enjoy your very own language version of our online PDF conversion service.

    Glad to see your progress and leverage of pdf technology and format. You might enjoy this anecdote. In the early 1990's [ancient history] I was involved in developing a new integrated electronic commerce platform for GE Information Services. Our EDI and email services were already connecting 50,000+ businesses for document exchange. We wanted to press the technology, move from proprietary platform to UNIX, etc.
    We had a visit from John Warnock, founder of Adobe. He was previewing a new technology, portable document format. We were intrigued with the potential to enhance document exchange among corporations. So, pdf went into the design and development of our electronic commerce platform, alongside structured standard documents.

    Nitro and others have come a long way since then, but the premise of convenient exchange of information remains an important value proposition.
  • That's a great story, thanks for sharing. It's hard to believe the PDF file
    format is getting close to being 20 years old.
  • How is this new offering any different from your other service - PDFdownload.org ?
  • Amit, the PrimoOnline service mainly focuses on converting files from your desktop -- that's what the majority of people are using it for. We've also included the same kind of Web to PDF capabilitiy in there as PDF Download.
