Bullzip – PDF Writer

Sometimes you just need a quick and dirty way to convert a document into a PDF quickly and effectively.  I used to us PDFCreator a lot but have run into a few issues installing on my work laptop as well as running with Vista.  It seems that this software called Bullzip works the exact same way with the exact same result without any issues.

image With PDF Creator you can make any printable document into a PDF, but what happens when you need to combine many PDF’s into just one file.  It seems that PortableApps is on a mission to convert a whole lot of new applications into their suite and this is their latest addition.  With PDFTK you can combine, split, watermark, and rotate your PDF’s with one simple tool.  I had found something similar to this before but it wasn’t open source and it wasn’t free and it was pretty large.  This is a great little app that you can run on your pen drive or install it to your computer.  A must have for anyone who deals with PDF’s a lot.
