Introducing Corel® PDF Fusion™
It’s really no surprise why PDF has become the de facto standard for exchanging
documents with business, government, legal, and everyday users. PDF is simply
one of the easiest ways around to share information. Thanks to the ubiquity of
PDF and the availability of lightweight readers for almost any of today’s devices,
when you choose this industry-standard format, you can ensure that text,
graphics, and images appear as you expect and can be easily shared with just
about anyone, anywhere.
But with all the wonders of PDF, users are still only able to take full advantage of
its power if they have a tool that makes it easy to create PDFs from a wide
variety of files. That’s where Corel® PDF Fusion™ comes in. Corel PDF Fusion lets
you view and work with over 100 formats without the expense and hassle of
buying and installing the software used to create the file. In addition to
supporting the file formats you use every day, Corel PDF Fusion is ideal for
opening and sharing file types that you may not typically work with.
Once you’ve opened a file in Corel PDF Fusion, you’ll see that the product takes a
unique, visual approach to building documents. You can use a simple drag-anddrop to add new content and then quickly flip through the pages. It’s easy to
make quick edits, thanks to a context-sensitive interface that displays the tools
relevant to the job at hand. Corel PDF Fusion also lets you save PDFs from any
application on your system that has print capabilities and batch convert multiple
files to PDF (or XPS). To keep things secure, PDF files from Corel PDF Fusion can
also support high security and data encryption levels, giving you control over
who can open and modify your documents.
Corel PDF Fusion is an affordable and powerful tool that offers a simple and
intuitive workflow for viewing, editing, assembling, and creating PDFs. It's fast
and easy to bring together content from a range of sources — text and data
from several different proprietary formats, images, and even graphics — to
create PDF packages that really get your message across.

Customer profiles
Small business: Value-conscious, small- or home-based businesses are always
seeking ways to fine-tune their messaging and improve communications with
customers. Whether the files for a job are coming in or going out, it can be costly
and complicated to have a multiple software products on hand to open and
share with customers and vendors.

Enterprise: To improve and streamline information sharing, medium and large
organizations seek a low total cost of ownership (TCO) PDF tool. They also seek
easy-to-use applications for archiving critical files in ISO-compliant standards and
accessing information stored in legacy documents.

Government: Public sector organizations and government departments
require a low-cost tool for creating and editing PDFs that doesn’t demand
intense user training. In addition, they need the ability to access content stored
in legacy files, possibly created in applications they no longer support.

Legal: Legal professionals and entities, ranging from small firms and solo
practitioners to large firms and legal aid groups, require robust PDF capabilities,
including support for PDF/A. They also seek tools that can handle file formats
that are key to the legal workflow, such as Microsoft® Office and WordPerfect®.

Key features
Corel PDF Fusion offers a streamlined, intuitive workflow for viewing, editing,

You can open and reuse information from Microsoft® Word and WordPerfect
documents, a variety of spreadsheets, dozens of graphic formats, even complex
Microsoft® Visio® and AutoCAD® technical illustrations. For a list of supported
formats, see “Appendix A: Supported file types” on page 10.
Scroll through long documents: The Flick view lets you flip through pages
in a document just like you would pages in a book. You can adjust the page size
and the scrolling speed, making the Flick view great for finding a specific page in
long document.

Edit
Simplify collaboration and editing: Whenever you select text, an intuitive
toolset appears for collaborating, editing, and more.
•

Collaborate easily: Corel PDF Fusion has an intuitive set of annotation
tools to facilitate collaboration. Whether you’re highlighting, striking out or
underlining text, marking text for redaction, or adding a sticky-note comment, a streamlined toolset makes document reviews fast and efficient. And
when you circulate the document, you can share it as a PDF, XPS, PNG, or
DOC file.

•

Edit text quickly: With Corel PDF Fusion, making final touchups in a PDF is
a snap. When you select text, an editing toolset displays beside it, so you
don’t have to search through menus and toolbars to find what you need.
And any changes you make won’t alter the flow of the document.

•

Create hyperlinks: To help your audience get the most out of your documents, Corel PDF Fusion offers easy-to-use linking tools. You can link text to
another page in the document, to another document, or to a web site.

draw them to critical content. You can quickly create a bookmark by selecting heading text. You can even add a bookmark to an image or object in
your file.

Create
Create documents in multiple formats: Corel PDF Fusion lets you draw
content from more than 100 file types and share your work in the format
that works best for your audience.
And when PDF isn’t the output format you need, you can also save your work to
other industry-standard formats, such as DOC, XPS, or PNG. When you convert a
PDF to DOC, all text formatting, layout, and graphics are preserved.

You can output to multiple formats.

Convert multiple files: You can turn all your project files into PDF, XPS, or
Microsoft Office files in a couple of clicks. The time-saving Corel® PDF Batch
Converter lets you drag-and-drop multiple files to convert a batch of documents
in one simple action.

You can convert multiple files to PDF, XPS, or DOC at the same time.

Print to PDF from Microsoft Office: The Corel® PDF Creator feature lets
you publish to PDF from any other program on your system that has printing
capability. Even more impressive, a PDF-creation tab appears on the ribbon in
Microsoft Word, Microsoft Excel, or Microsoft PowerPoint, so you can quickly
and easily turn any DOC, XLS, or PPT file into PDF.

You can create PDFs from any application that can print.
