PDF Toolkit Pro

PDF Toolkit Pro, developed by Guangming Software, Inc., offers a comprehensive set of functionalities for managing PDF documents. The latest version, 3.0.2015.419, provides robust solutions for splitting, merging, encrypting, and decrypting PDF files with ease. This free Office Tool, categorized under Document management, is designed for Windows XP, 7, and 8 and has a lightweight program file size of just 1.4 MB.

As an all-in-one PDF ActiveX component, PDF Toolkit Pro is entirely standalone and does not require Adobe Acrobat or Acrobat Reader to function. Users can download this efficient tool to handle various PDF tasks, including converting images (TIFF, JPG, PNG) to PDF files. The software allows for splitting files by pages, creating individual files from single pages, or grouping a few pages into new files. Moreover, it can merge multiple PDF files or select specific pages from one or more files, all while preserving original links and form fields.

An exciting feature of PDF Toolkit Pro is its ability to stamp PDF files with images (JPEG, transparent PNG, TIFF, and GIFs) or customized text, including size, location, font, and color adjustments. Although the latest version is already packed with features, the previous versions, like 3.0, still hold significant utility in document management for Office work.
