Q. How can I convert my PDF files to another file format?

A. Just select the file you want to convert, choose an output format and an output folder and click the Convert button.

 

Q. How do I convert my files to PDF?

Think of Smart PDF Converter Pro as a printer. But instead of printing a physical sheet of paper, it saves your file to disk in PDF format.

1. Open your file with an editor of your choice. For example, open .DOC files with Word and .XLS files with Excel.

2. Go to the File menu and click Print. You don't have to have a printer connected to your PC

3. Select SmartSoft PDF Printer from the list of printers and click OK. Your PDF file is ready!

Important: Conversion to PDF is available in the Pro version only.

Q. When I try to open my converted HTML file, a window appears, saying: "To help protect your security, Internet Explorer has restricted this file from showing active content that could access your computer". What do I do?
