PDF freeware that sucks
I’m a freeware junkie. I admit it. I’ll download stuff I never use just ’cause it’s so clever. And free.
But I’ve had no luck when it comes to freeware for creating PDFs. It’s all crap as far as I can tell. And if it’s not crap, it’s worse than crap.
Pdf995 has got to be the suck of the vacuum. I downloaded this – and all the milllion components it needs to “work properly” and all it did was muck up my system. I can’t get its stupid macros off my stupid Word. (Or am I just stupid?) I uninstalled Pdf995 about 35 seconds after it failed to do anything useful and now I get an error message every time I open Word because the macros aren’t there but the crap won’t delete from my toolbar. Months later and I’m still finding Pdf995 files in random places.
I give this worse than a thumbs-down. One finger up.
