PDF SOFTWARE WITH CLOUD COLLABORATION

Getting documents signed by your clients and others seems archaic compared to technology advancements in other areas. Because most people have a computer connected the Internet, you can obtain signatures more efficiently than the print-scan-email technique that remains dominant by dint of (bad) habit. Ideally, such a service should integrate with your PDF software.

Nitro Pro+ 10 … in One Sentence

Launching this week, Nitro Pro+ 10 is PDF software with a cloud component for electronic signatures, collaboration, and storage.

The Killer Feature

Nitro Pro+ 10 integrates with the company's Nitro Cloud service, which includes electronic signatures. Starting on your desktop, you use Nitro Pro+ to convert the document into PDF format. Then you "send" it to the signatory by entering their email address. Nitro Pro+ uploads it to Nitro Cloud, and emails a secure link to the signatory. The signatory clicks the link, logs in, and electronically signs the document. Nitro Cloud provides an audit trail, and notifies you of signed documents ready for download.

Nitro Cloud also offers storage for your documents as well as annotation tools that work within a web browser so that you can collaborate on PDF documents with anyone. Nitro Pro+ also integrates with Dropbox, OneDrive, and Google Drive. You can save documents directly to these services from the File menu.

Other Notable Features

The new version of Nitro Pro+ runs 40% faster than the previous version, and features improved optical character recognition. New tools enable you to clean up and straighten low-quality scans for the best possible output.

Batch processing now exists for virtually every function in Nitro Pro+. For example, you can convert, password protect, print, etc. multiple files simultaneously, including entire folders.

Nitro Pro+ now supports the creation of PDF portfolios, which enable you to combine documents of any file type into a single PDF file. The documents in the portfolio remain in their native format. You can use this tool to archive email from a case in native Outlook format, provide a client with all the documents from their matter, etc.

You'll find all the "Pro" level features you would expect in PDF software, including the ability to convert more 300 file types into PDF format, integration with the toolbar in Microsoft Office, and tools for merging, splitting, stamping, editing, annotating, commenting, and adding your own secure signature. The company guarantees that Nitro Pro+ creates 100% industry-standard PDF and PDF/A documents that anyone can view on virtually any device.

What Else Should You Know?

Nitro Pro+ costs $7.99 per month, significantly less than Acrobat DC. If you don't need Nitro Cloud (electronic signatures, online collaboration, and online storage) and/or you don't want a subscription, you can buy a traditional license of Nitro Pro for $159.99. Nitro Pro+ runs on Windows Vista and later. Learn more about Nitro Pro+ 10.
