Working with PDF documents is nothing new. To make your work easier, we covered Able2Extract Professional, a tool that helps with almost any PDF tasks that you may have to perform, such as signing PDF document, editing PDF text, and converting PDF files to name a few.
Well, the developers of the software, Investintech.com, have just released the latest version: Able2Extract Professional 15. While the previous version was focused on providing you with more PDF functionality, this version is focused on supplementing and enhancing the way you work.
We’d like to introduce you to Able2Extract Professional 15.0 and show you how this suite’s newest upgrade is beating out all other PDF tools in both function and design.
Completely New Interface
One of the main focuses of this upgrade is the newly redesigned interface. The new look from this newest version is not only sleek, but it’s highly functional as well. Here’s what it has to offer.
Toolbar & Side Panel – First, the main change that’ll improve your PDF tasks is the toolbar. It’s laid out in a new ribbon-style menu, so any PDF task you’re trying to accomplish can be easily done from one tab, just like Microsoft Office apps.
In addition, any further options you need to set will be visible and accessible in the new Side Panel that carries the relevant settings you need depending on the tab that you are in.
Light and dark themes – Here’s a great addition that focuses on you, the worker. You can adjust the interface from light and dark themes, accommodating the software to the lighting in your environment. Toggle between both modes creatively to prevent eye strain and make long working hours more comfortable.
Start Page – The Start Page (shown above) is something that you’ll also notice and get some good use out of. It’s the place where you, literally, “start.” Select recent files to continue working on them, take guided tutorials on major PDF tasks, or customize the Interface to exactly the way you want it. It’s your one-stop shop for your entire work session.
Different Languages – Another customization you can set from the Start Page. The latest version introduces support for different languages: French, Spanish, and German. So no matter what the work, you can get the interface speaking the same language you do.
OCR Language Support
For those that deal with the even tougher situation of handling not only scanned PDFs, but also PDFs in different languages, Able2Extract Professional 15 can help. The OCR engine of this new iteration has support for converting scanned PDFs in French, Spanish, and German! Select which one you want the OCR engine to detect while converting your scanned PDF and you’re all set.
Increase PDF Creation Tasks with the New Batch PDF Creation Tool
Sometimes instead of converting PDFs, you need to create them – in bulk. Fortunately, the developers of this software have kept that in mind. This version has boosted its PDF creation feature with a new Batch PDF Creation tool. With it, you can upload multiple files and turn them into PDF documents just as easily as you would batch convert them with this tool.
To top it off, this tool comes with the ability to batch merge those PDFs into one single PDF file, as well. So if you have multiple files you’d like to assemble as a PDF, Able2Extract Professional 15 lets you do so by checking the Merge Results into a Single File option on a queue of PDFs. Eliminate the individual file-by-file merging that can take hours!
Custom Excel Conversion improvements
This PDF suite is known for its Custom Excel conversion that lets you manually adjust rows and columns to extract only the tabular data you want into formatted Excel spreadsheets.
Version 15 takes that customization up a notch by allowing you to set options for headers and footers as well as text splitting rules for each individual table structure you have set up. On top of that, the developers have brought back the ability to remove row and column lines by simply double clicking on them.
Enhanced Batch PDF Conversion tool
The range of the Batch PDF Conversion tool has been expanded and is now better well-rounded with the inclusion of PDF to HTML output.
Not only that, but when uploading directories of files for batch conversion, you can zero in on the files you want converted by setting the new file format filter. You can also decide to batch merge all your converted results into one file output like you can with the Batch PDF Creator tool. This will save a ton of time so you don’t have to copy paste scattered file conversion results into a single file one by one.
Other tweaks in the box
While the above features are the main heavy hitters, there are also a number of smaller additions that are powerful enough to increase your productivity. These include:
- Improved document search functionality that is now faster, more accurate and flexible enough to search your document in reverse.
- The ability to split documents into even parts.
- A new hand tool for better navigation.
- An Improved Raster to Vector OCR engine that can detect edges in AutoCAD files better.
Conclusion
All the newest features above make this PDF suite the one to beat on the market. Not only do they add a layer of increased productivity, the pricing point is exactly the same as its predecessor. Essentially, you are getting the most bang for your buck, which you can’t say for most PDF tools that offer half the features Able2Extract Professional does.
If you still aren’t sure, download Able2Extract Professional 15 for 7 days – absolutely free! – and give it a test run with your PDF routine. We guarantee that you won’t be disappointed with what it can do.
