What office worker’s day would be complete without sending out documents? Since PDF files are smaller and nearly everyone in the known universe has a PDF viewer, I usually send out PDF files instead of Word documents.
Here are two free time saving tools in the PDF category: CutePDF and doPDF. They both install like a printer on your compure and work similarly: you select them when printing any document (Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Visio, etc.) and the tool then prompts you where to save the resulting PDF file.
Not only will you save time creating PDF files with these tools, but you’ll save your recipients time opening the files. This is especially true if they are using the very fast Foxit PDF reader. Plus, because you send them a PDF, you’ll know how the content will look when it is printed. No worries about how their printer renders a document differently than yours.
