Primo Online PDF Converter

This is as quick and simple as any online converter. The biggest drawback to the online converters, is they often DON'T transfer Table Of Contents, and hyperlinks across to the PDF. And of course, that is absolutely essential if you intend creating an instructional PDF for sale.

You also need to pay attention to the file size returned to you. If it blows out to an unreasonable size, then it's next to useless. Here are the details you need to know.

PDF Creation Time.
I have always found Primo to be exceptionally quick. The last word document I converted was in my inbox by the time I had opened it to check! Maybe a minute or so. You can't get quicker than that.

File size returned
The original document I sent was 623kb. The PDF I received back was 720kb. So a very good result.I have seen some services that blow a document out to 5-10 times the original size.

File size permitted
Most online services have a maximum file size that they permit you to upload. In this case, that is a 10mb file. This should be more than adequate for most people, presuming that you have optimized the images contained in the original document.

Formatting retained
This is a big question, will all my links and TOC still work and be clickable? With Primo, the answer is yes, they will. The document is unaltered in layout as well.

Many free converters will transfer a link across to the PDF as long as it is in htt://www.some-site.com format. But as soon as you try to use this is a link then it all falls apart. Primo lets you use anchor text for your link - you do NOT have to display the URL.

Overall, I find this to be quick, simple and very effective. I highly recommend it. Overall, I haven't found an online PDF creator that does a better job than this one. And I think I have tried just about everything! You can also get a version to install on your computer, so you don't need to go online for your PDF onversion. This will be reviewed as well.
