fCoder 2PDF creates PDF files from Word, Excel, PDFs, images and other formats using command line interface. The trial version of 2PDF has the same functionality as the commercial version and lets you use the program freely for evaluation purposes. There is one limitation though – a special watermark with the text "Created by trial version of 2PDF" appears in the corner of each newly created PDF page.
If you want to remove the limitation of the trial version and/or need to use 2PDF for business, please purchase a commercial license.
