The PDF is everywhere in the world of business, and not every tool is entirely up to the task of streamlining your processes for working with this ubiquitous type of file. The cost is too high, the learning curve too steep, the support requirements too demanding — the challenges are many. What many need is simple: a solution built for business. Tungsten Automation Power PDF, formerly Nuance Power PDF, is just such a solution. Supporting more than 2 million customers globally, Power PDF is already the leading alternative to Adobe Acrobat. With the release of Power PDF 4, we've signaled the start of the next generation of cost-competitive PDF management for businesses in every industry.

Supercharged functionality for the modern office

While upgrades and new features are always exciting, the core functionality of Power PDF remains the same. A robust tool for PDF manipulation that is easy to learn for any user familiar with Microsoft Office, Power PDF includes all the essential features you expect from software of this caliber.

Important functionalities developed for ease-of-use in business settings include:

• Wide-ranging document conversion capabilities. Rapidly convert Microsoft Office files to PDF and back again. Power PDF supports converting from many other file formats, including JPG, TIFF, and more.
• Security from the ground up to protect sensitive documents and resist electronic tampering. Power PDF 4 supports industry-leading AES encryption standards, with digital document signatures and certificate-based encryption for maximum security in sensitive industries.
• Intuitive PDF editing and consolidation for direct document manipulation to make your paperwork look professional.
• Powerful tools for information privacy, including automated redaction and document comparison to support consistent versioning.

In version 4, we've enhanced these features and added more to continue creating value for businesses with one or a thousand users.

What's new in Power PDF 4?

Power PDF 4 is the best version for business users yet, with a whole suite of new features, integrations, and enhancements targeted to make every workday easier. By taking what our users already enjoyed and adding more features, we provided even more tools for effectively managing PDFs, all while meeting a lower price point for businesses.

What are some of the exciting improvements awaiting users of Power PDF 4?

• Even more advanced optical character recognition (OCR), with version 21 of Tungsten Automation OCR built directly into Power PDF.

Power PDF 4 includes a further 11% improvement in conversion from low-resolution images. Convert to and from JPG and PDF with ease, saving time on every document.
• New integration with time-saving e-signature technologies, including Tungsten Automation SignDoc, a separate tool for building a paperless office through the elimination of wet-ink signing.

With other enhancements including an overhauled user interface and behind-the-scenes changes for better accessibility and consistency across all documents, Power PDF 4 was created with business needs in mind — whether that business is in healthcare, finance, legal, commerce, or any other.

Solutions for standardization in any industry

Smart functionality should come with a price tag that makes the software a smart investment, too. Power PDF wasn't just built for business; it was designed to produce a clear ROI for firms, as well.
