PrimoPDF 5
The first public beta of our all-new PrimoPDF 5 is now available for immediate download. It’s an exciting and very significant release for Primo and quite easily the most major update to Primo since it was released many years ago.
Those of you regularly using Primo will be pleased to know that Primo is now smaller and faster to load, has had a full user interface overhaul to make it easier to use, and now works with Windows 7.
While they’re all important improvements, the big one is the all-new drag-and-drop PDF creation capability. I wrote a while back about the key problem with all free PDF print drivers — that there are far too many steps to creating a PDF file. With our new creation there is no longer the need to open files and then print to PDF — with one click you can now just drop them onto the Primo icon and convert them automatically. So instead of around eight steps to get your PDF, there’s one! Primo is the only free PDF creator that lets you do this.
Of course, if you want to convert files the old way using PrimoPDF, you still can, but for many people we think the new way will finally make free PDF creation easy.
We’ve put together a quick video below showing how the new feature works and how you can quickly customize your conversion settings. Take a look and then download the beta to try it for yourself.
