It is easier to share documents when they are in PDF format, but sometimes you may need their contents in a different form. When it comes to converting files, Windows does not offer anything to help you with this task, so you can only resort to third party software. If you are in a hurry to convert PDF files to other formats, PDFMate Free PDF Converter is one of the best choices you can make. It supports various output formats, it works fast and it is very easy to use.

Like the name suggests, the software is free and it works on 32 or 64-bit versions of Windows XP, Vista and Win 7. The setup process is smooth and it will not take long to complete. Additional tools or services are not required, so you can start using the program immediately.

The application lets you convert PDF documents to .epub, .html, .swf files, plain text or images. The process will take only a few seconds, thanks to the interface's clean and simple design. Batch converting is supported as well. You may load one or more PDF files with the software's browsing option or you can simply drag and drop them over a list on the interface. Once a file is displayed in the list, you will see its size and the total number of pages.

The output formats are represented by a series of icons, located beneath the files list. All you have to do is choose one of these formats, by selecting their icons and click the large Convert button, in the lower right corner of the interface. The program will convert the PDF documents immediately, without prompting you for anything. The converted files can be saved in the source folder or you can select a different one.

The conversion process is fast and when it is done, you may select a different format, convert again and repeat this action until you have used all the available formats. There is also a PDF option, among the output formats. It will not convert your documents, but it will shrink them. When you hit the Convert button, while the PDF icon is selected, a dialog will appear on the screen, with options for shrinking four or two pages into one.

The software's advanced settings panel contains a few adjustments for some of the output formats. You may protect a PDF document with a password or prevent it from being edited, copied or printed, set the application to ignore images when converting to HTML and more.

Pros

PDFMate Free PDF Converter's interface is the first aspect you will appreciate. It is very well organized and easy to use. The software is capable of converting multiple documents in one run and it will not take long to complete the process.

Cons

The software can not convert to MS Word documents and some users may need this feature. PDFMate Free PDF Converter focuses on speed, efficiency and comfort, so you may convert any number of PDF documents to various formats, without any effort.
