Lockergnome feature

novaPDF is really neat

"novaPDF – Print To PDF Without Breaking The Bank. After downloading and installing the program (which takes all of one minute) you’re ready to print to a PDF. Any program that can print via the standard Windows printer interface can print to PDF (i.e. convert a file to PDF), including text, Word, Excel, […] , novaPDF will convert your files into PDF format without making your wallet cry."

Editor’s Review

This application is great

"[...] Pluses: novaPDF supports multiple profiles. This means that all your settings can be easily saved or loaded. Another great feature is the program’s ability to put bookmarks into the PDF document it creates. Drawbacks/flaws: [none] In conclusion: This application is great for generating PDF documents out of any type of printable data."
