2. FREE Support
   • As a novaPDF user you are entitled to FREE customer support even if you are using the unregistered version (registered users have priority in receiving answers).

5. Simplified Installation
   • You can install novaPDF on a Windows server, and any user can print to PDF (i.e. convert a file to PDF) either by adding the novaPDF shared printer or by installing novaPDF on their computers too.
6. Reliable
   • You will be able to open your document across a wide range of hardware and software platforms, while the quality of the generated PDF document will be very good, maintaining the original layout, fonts and images.
7. Easy to Use
   • You can use novaPDF to easily create standard PDF files from any Windows application. Simply set the novaPDF printer driver as the default one and everytime you click "Print" from any application that supports printing, the PDF will be generated by novaPDF.
8. Protect Documents
   • Your business documents are often confidential and access needs to be restricted in certain ways. You can restrict the access to all PDF files created with novaPDF by password protecting them and restricting certain features, such as printing, modifying, content extraction, form filling or annotating. novaPDF has support for both 40-bit and 128-bit encryption to secure PDF files.
9. Easy Administration
   • With novaPDF Server you can define public profiles. These profiles are created on the server computer and are automatically propagated to all client computers. You can configure some profiles to save the PDF files in a folder on server and all client computers will generate the PDF files in that folder. Also, another benefit of server licensing is that you can manage your licenses from a single location (the server).
10. Low Cost
    • Users usually only need to create and view PDF files so there is no reason in spending money on extra features for a product. This is why novaPDF is a cost effective solution that gives everyone the ability to create and distribute documents as PDF files.
