Create, Edit and Protect PDFs!
As PDFs are one of the most common file types used in business, you may often wonder if there is a way to not only edit them, but also convert them into other file formats such as a Microsoft Word Document.
Fortunately, there are solutions available that do this and much more. We recommend PhantomPDF by Foxit as it is feature-rich and represents excellent value for money.
One other great feature is that you can grant and revoke access to a PDF using encryption and password protection. This is invaluable to many organisations that need to send sensitive data electronically.
