Functional Survey

CIB pdf brewer Version 2 is a free pdf converter with the option of increasing the functionality range by licensing the software.

Already the first version of CIB pdf brewer had the goal that customers can use this pdf converter to produce free pdf files. One of the central new possibilities is to edit pdf files which were converted from within Microsoft® Word by CIB pdf brewer. Therefore save your Word files in the new file format e.pdf provided by CIB pdf brewer. After doing that you can edit your PDF file with Word or open it with your PDF reader.

Advantages of this central feature:

	Free PDF conversion and editing without any loss
	PDF converter and reworking tool in one product
	Password protection for Word® files against opening and editing
	Reducing of the file set: Using just one file for both Word® and PDF
