A whole new way of looking at PDFs:
Reformat PDFs using Word, or...
Paste up bits of one or more PDFs to make new and different documents
- Select graphics, paragraphs, pages, parts of pages you choose from one or more PDFs into a new document.
- Mix in your own text and graphics in the layout you choose.
- All using Word's familiar editing features.
- Easily automated for repetitive pasteups.
- Or, start with an existing Word document and add in selections from PDFs.

PDFs have always been read-only documents. Word takes a small step in the right direction, but PDFpasteup really brings PDFs into Office.

Open a PDF with Word |
| Perfect formatting |
Word messes up formatting, fonts, text. Often to the point of uselessness. |
| Import any image, page, or part of a page |
Must open the whole document, then copy & paste the pieces you need. A slow process. |
Crop and trim graphics automaticallly.
Can trim page margins, headers/footers, page numbers, etc. to blend into your document. |
Manually copy & paste, then trim graphics with Word's awkward cropping tool. |
Works with Mail Merge. All these can be controlled with Mail Merge variables:
- Which PDF
- Which Page -- either by page number or by text search within the PDF.
- Which Image
|
Nope. Strictly a manual process. |
| Virtually instant |
PDFs take a long time to open in Word. |
| Works with almost all PDF documents |
Many PDFs take several minutes to open, or just spin endlessly forcing you to cancel Word. |
