PDF Pronto is an application that offers to convert documents and images into PDF and vice versa. The array of supported formats is extensive and the conversion procedure is simple and intuitive, which makes the program suitable for home use.
The program opens with an attractive and uncluttered interface. Without any complicated settings to configure, you just need to drag into the app the files you wish to convert or select them from a browsing window, and then enable the conversion. The tool allows you to import multiple documents and images at once in order to convert them in one session. Yet, they will be merged automatically into a single PDF file, as the program doesn't output the source files you initially loaded into their corresponding individual PDFs. Therefore, you are forced to load one file at a time and enable successive conversion sessions if you want to preserve the content of your documents and images in separate PDF files. Converting PDFs into other types of files is also easy to enable. Once the PDF documents are added to the conversion list, all you need to do is determine the format you wish to export them to. The range of supported output formats is extensive, including both common and not-so-common document and image formats.
In short, PDF Pronto provides a convenient and simple solution to convert into and from PDF. Unfortunately, the program lacks useful features, like a preview of files before conversion, image file compression, and password-protection of the output PDF documents.
