Insert content as image

By using the PDF export (to Word or Powerpoint), you can define that the whole content is inserted as image. That is useful if the file contains complex
contents which cannot be converted easily. If the whole content is pasted as an image, you can still insert text layers above the content, e.g. to fill forms in
Word or to insert additional text in presentations.

Optical Character Recognition (OCR) in images

If your PDF files contain scanned documents (i.e. all text is included in images only), you can run an optical character recognition (OCR) in these images.
Just choose the language of your document for the OCR option. Please note, that in this case only 20 pages can be converted at once and the correct
recognition strongly depends on the image quality.

XPS and OXPS files as source selectable

XPS and OXPS files can be directly converted to Word/Excel/Powerpoint/Images, without converting them to PDF first.

Images files as source selectable

Scanned images files (JPG, TIFF...) can be directly converted to Word/Excel/Powerpoint (using the OCR option), without converting them to PDF first.

Advanced OCR
By using the PDF export with activated OCR, you can now apply the character recognition for the whole content, not only for scans. In some cases, PDF
files contain wrong character encodings and therefore it is not possible to copy or search text (even if the text is selectable!). All you would get are symbols
or wrong characters. The standard OCR is only applied for scanned pages, not for already existing text. Therefore you would get all these wrong characters
in the converted document too. With the new feature "Advanced OCR" (selectable as checkbox) each page is handled as image and the whole text is newly
recognized with OCR.

Merge files
Up to 20 files can be merged together to one single PDF file. It doesn't matter whether you use existing PDF files or files which have to be converted first.
All files are merged in the same order, in which you have selected the files.

The filename of the final PDF file will be taken over from the first selected file automatically.

Mix pages of files alternately

If you select 2 scanned documents (PDF, XPS, TIFF), you are able to merge them in a nested way. This means that the pages of both documents are taken
alternately. This makes sense if you scanned your pages double-sided and one document contains only the front sides and the other one only the back
sides.

Arrange files:
The new and improved user interface and file selection allows you to arrange your added files by simple Drag&Drop. Furthermore, added files can be
deleted easily, without having to start fresh from the beginning.

Add multiple files at the same time:

In modern browsers it is possible to select several files in the same file dialog window by pressing the Ctrl key. As a result, many files can be added fast and
easily, without adding each file separately.

Page composition: select or rearrange pages and split PDF files

This feature allows you to arrange and customize the pages of your document or only select specific pages. Choose a file, which consists of several pages
(e.g. PDF, Word, Powerpoint) and afterwards click the red button with the scissor on it, which is located on the right side of the file.

By entering the page numbers in this text field, you are able to define the pages, which should be imported into the final PDF document. The order of the
page numbers in this text field determines the real sequence in the produced PDF file. In this way, you are able to arrange and customize the pages of your
document according to your wishes.
It is possible to select only single pages or even whole page ranges.

Here are some examples:

Purpose: Notation:

Pages 1, 2, 3 and 4 1,2,3,4 OR 1-4

Pages 1, 2, 3, 6, 8, 9 and 10 1-3, 6, 8-10

Pages 3 until the end 3-

Pages 5, 4, 3, 2, 1 (reverse pages from 5 to 1 !) 5,4,3,2,1 OR 5-1

Split file: PDF with page 1-3 and PDF with page 4 until end of file 1-3 | 4-
(separation between page 3 und 4)

Split file: PDF with page 2-4 and PDF with page 7-9 2-4 | 7-9
(only a subset is used)

Split file: PDF with page 1, PDF with page 2-5, PDF with page 7 and 9 1 | 2-5 | 7,9
(only a subset is used)
