ARTS PDF Announces Nitro PDF Professional 4.9 Upgrade – "The First True Adobe Acrobat Alternative"
ARTS PDF, the award-winning and category-leading developer of "PDF power tools" for business, including best-in-class Adobe Acrobat plug-ins and the first true Acrobat alternative – Nitro PDF™ Professional – announced today the release of Nitro PDF™ Professional 4.9, the latest in a series of upgrades which are free to the many thousands of Nitro Pro owners.
Nitro PDF Professional 4.9 is being officially launched at the ARTS PDF-sponsored PDF Conference (Washington D.C, Sept 26-27 www.pdfconference.com)
ARTS PDF CEO Karl De Abrew said: "We are proving, again, that we are the innovators in the space and our competitors cannot match our aggressive upgrade cycle or compete with our technology library."
He said the upgrade featured technology from ARTS PDF’s $699 best-in-class Aerialist Professional plug-in, designed for the Adobe Acrobat power user (about Aerialist www.artspdf.com/aerialist).
"Aerialist Pro is an incredibly powerful product — with unbelievable capabilities — and to have some of these in a $99 product is an industry-first," said De Abrew.
"Enterprises in particular are backing Nitro Pro, secure in the knowledge that ARTS PDF has an aggressive upgrade program for the product which will keep it as the category leader for years to come," says De Abrew.

Some of the new features include:
- Image Editing — Edit images directly in Nitro PDF Professional using the built-in image editor. Fix color spaces, sampling, resolution, size, and much more.
- Optimize Documents — Designed to reduce the overall size of existing PDF documents by allowing the user to globally remove elements such as comments, form fields, bookmarks and links as well as unembedding fonts, optimizing the document for the web and controlling image compression.
- Intelligent Link Creation – Search for keywords in a document and automatically create an active link from the keyword to a destination within the document, a web page or another file.
- Automatic Page Linking – Scan a document for link suspects and automatically create links from these numbers to the corresponding page in the document. Great for automatically creating links in a table of contents or an index.
Competitively priced at $99 and available now, the new Nitro Pro gives users full control over PDF documents, including commenting, form-filling and authoring, digital signatures, text editing, advanced document manipulation, PDF-to-Word conversion, one-click creation from Microsoft Office and more.
