Desktop PCs aren't like mobile devices, in that they don't come equipped with PDF readers, so many people turn to programs like Soda PDF to handle all of their reading and conversation needs on Windows.

Overview of Soda PDF

There are quite a few reasons why having a PDF reader may come in handy. The vast majority of eBooks you read, as well as studies and other materials, are all formatted specifically to be used with a PDF reader. This is where a program like Sofa PDF can really come in handy. Not only does this program read your PDFs, but it also acts as a conversation tool and allows you to quickly and effectively change another extension, like .doc, to a PDF in only a few seconds.

Soda PDF Pro + OCR is the full name of the program released a few years ago by LULU Software. It's not a free program, and you will only get the trial version unless you purchase the full product key. Its size is relatively small, at only 9.2mb, and it loads up pretty quickly and works fast.

How Soda PDF Works

This is a program that's meant to work with Windows versions XP, Vista, 7 and 8. So far, there hasn't been a release that works with W10, so you'll need an older version of Windows if you want to run this program. Just give your PC permission and follow the instructions, and open like any other program. It opens up like any other reader, with a page that has tabs on top like File, View, Create, Convert, Edit, Insert, Review, etc.

There is definitely nothing fancy about Soda PDF. By and large, it operates just as any other PDF reader does. The only real difference here of note is that you can easily convert any sort of document into a PDF. So you can open a range of file extensions in Soda Pro and then save them as PDF through a simple conversion process.

Soda PDF Features

The first feature you're going to notice is the reader itself. Its reading area is pretty large, and you're able to zoom in, flip through pages, or even customize its size to fit your desktop screen well. The Edit feature offers a pretty extensive set of tools that go well beyond simply copying and pasting. You can edit like a pro-style editor from this reader.

Another solid feature of this program is its security. You can seal all of your PDF files with passwords and other encryption keys so that they remain safe, or request that any document require privileges to open or edit, like administrator privileges.
