I like PDFCreator because it is fast and quick in creating PDFs. It makes converting complex documents like Word and Excel files into PDFs a streamlined and efficient process, saving me time and reducing hassle. I also appreciate how simple it is to set up; logging in with my Google account makes the whole process straightforward. Overall, PDFCreator significantly simplifies the task of creating PDF files from various types of documents. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I dislike the limitation of the free version of PDFCreator, which only allows the creation of PDFs from one file at a time. When attempting to upload multiple files for conversion, I find that I need to upgrade to the premium version. This limitation is frustrating because I believe there should be a functionality that allows users to create multiple PDFs from several files simultaneously one time to test in the free version and feel them how can a complex work easy for them and it be in finger of tips Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I really appreciate how simply PDFCreator lets me turn virtually any printable document into a PDF.

While it does the job well, there are a couple of minor things. Some users say it becomes slow or even crashes on larger tasks.

I appreciate that PDFCreator is free yet reliably accomplishes what I need without bombarding me with frustrating ads. This is particularly valuable because it allows me to avoid paying for expensive subscriptions like those required with Adobe, yet still provides all the essential functions that I require. It consistently creates high-quality PDFs, which means I don't waste time troubleshooting file conversions. The software also solves formatting issues, ensuring that when I send a PDF, I am assured that the layout won't be altered when viewed on someone else's computer. Additionally, its compatibility with Microsoft Word and Excel is a significant benefit for me, offering the quickest method to convert final documents or spreadsheets into PDFs without having to use the save-as option within those programs. Finally, the initial setup of PDFCreator was very easy and quick, adding to the overall positive experience. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I wish the settings menu was a little simpler. Sometimes finding the exact configuration I need takes a few clicks. Also, the installer used to feel a bit cluttered, but that's a minor thing. Additionally, I would recommend more if ads were removed. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

PDFCreator is extremely easy to use and works reliably every time I need to convert or combine documents. I like that it supports multiple file types and lets me create PDFs quickly without any complicated setup. The interface is straightforward, and features like merging files, adjusting settings, and securing PDFs make everyday tasks much simpler. For basic to moderate PDF work, it gets the job done smoothly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The only downside is that some of the more advanced features are locked behind the paid version, which can be limiting if you need deeper customization. At times, the software also feels a bit slower when processing larger files. The UI could be more modern and intuitive, especially for new users. Apart from that, nothing major—just small improvements that could make the overall experience better. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It is very easy to use and lets you create PDFs from virtually any type of document, not only text files but also images. With the default settings, it produces PDFs that are good quality while still fairly lightweight (for example, in Word, the native “Save as PDF” option creates a heavier file). You can also adjust the existing profiles or create your own custom ones.

When creating PDFs, you can add extra information such as the author’s name or keywords, merge multiple documents into a single file, rotate individual pages, and send the PDF directly by email. It’s also available in a wide range of languages. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The free version lets you do quite a few things, but some features (for example, deleting pages when merging multiple documents) require the paid premium version. When merging files, the design of the hint that appears at the bottom—telling you that you can drag files to change their order—could be improved, as it’s easy to miss. Also, when creating a PDF, a kind of summary window pops up, and until you close it you can’t create any other documents. I find it a bit annoying to have to check whether you’ve left an open window somewhere when the PDF creator suddenly isn’t working. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
