Docudesk Never Seems to Work Hi - Just thought I would express the years of frustration with this software. It's worth my time to write this. Keep thinking things will improve - they don't. Unclear as to why there are so many glowing reviews. Docudesk has been a total hassle so far. My experience has been that Docudesk splits functionality across several tools, that don't integrate well, and don't execute their core functionality reliably, or in ways I understand. At the end of the day, it's just PDFs right? Seems like one of the several Docudesk products I have would do the job. Now I just use Word for PDF conversion...it's faster, more reliable with better results. Also the licensing is very complex...seems like I always have to register software I have bought (or re-register...not sure), and then I link to the product for registration and they say they don't offer it. I tried to use again recently and was embarrassed at work when the PDF conversion software cut off a page of a simple 3-page document.

This is SOOO cool. This is SOOO cool. I needed to convert an MS-Word doc to .PDF, and I tried a couple of different things I found on the web (e.g., Smart PDF Creator Pro), then I downloaded a trial version of deskPDF 2.5 Standard. It worked immediately, and it captured my fonts correctly, it captured my line and paragraph spacing correctly, it captured my code samples and fonts correctly, and it captured the symbols I drew (Word Autoshapes) correctly! I only converted the first few pages, but I have to tell you I LOVE the idea that I can continue to use this product even after the five uses. I have no problem whatsoever with the watermarks, all I care about is being able to preview my entire book to see how it will look when it is converted (without guessing), so when I go to purchase deskPDF (to get rid of the watermarks), I will know EXACTLY what I am getting. Awesome job! Now all I have to do is finish my book...

Keep up the good work I had a question several weeks ago about my Docudesk program. To my utter amazement, I received two replies within less than 30 minutes with easy-to-follow instructions. I'm no computer whiz, so simple instructions are vital. When the head honcho takes the time to respond to a customer, I have to say that I'm totally impressed. Thanks to your quick response, I have now downloaded the $49 upgrade you offered. I would not normally take a chance on unfamiliar software, but I feel confident that any problems or questions I might have will receive the same courteous and speedy replies. Keep up the good work, and I'll be a customer for life! Linda Fessel

Paid for version suddenly become unregistered Having paid for this software, it has suddenly become unregistered and any attempt to use the registration code results in direction to SodaPDF who expect you to pay an exorbitant amount to recover what has already been paid for! No thanks!

very well pleased I've been using deskPDF as my .pdf writer for a number of years and have been very well pleased with it. Last week I purchased and downloaded the newly available deskPDF Editor for Windows. The very next day, I learned that a 40-page .pdf document that I had created from numerous small files and sent out had an error on pages 23-25. Previously I would have had to correct the underlying document, then assemble the whole 40-page file again ~ a very labor-intensive operation. With deskPDF Editor I was able to delete the incorrect pages and insert corrected ones. The whole operation took about 10 minutes and worked flawlessly. I was delighted! This new program is going to make my life a lot easier in many ways. I'm eager to explore its other features.
