Pros: You are able to print most documents with this tool. You’d be able to print the documents that have printing disabled too. Any PDF, MS reader eBook, Print any PDF, Adobe Digital Editions, eBook or Mobpocket. So all those accumulated eBooks that you could not be printed before and just been lying around your hard disk, now can be printed out and used. What it does is capture the document from the screen and create a PDF document which is directly printable! It takes care of capturing multiple pages of the eBook automatically scrolling through the documents. The application is able to identify pages and captures them correctly and outputs the captured details to a PDF. The automated multi-page capture feature is a unique time saver and an absolute must for all those long electronic documents and manuals that you couldn`t print otherwise.

The process starts by setting the finder tool over the document window. You are able to adjust the viewing of the layout that’s appropriate to the type of document.
