Readdle is famous for its plethora of impressive productivity apps for iOS devices, and their latest continues that fine trend. PDF Converter — a $6.99 app for the iPad — will turn any document into a high quality PDF.
With PDF Converter you can save Word, Excel, Powerpoint or iWork documents, and even web pages, photos and clipboard content as professional quality PDFs, using nothing but your iPad. Transform any file saved on your device into a PDF, from multi-page documents to webpages you want to read later offline.
The whole process is done entirely on your device, so it’s completely secure. And there’s no need to upload or download anything, so there’s no need for an internet connection.
Once PDF Converter is installed, the app will appear as an option for opening documents on your device, allowing you to save PDFs from apps like Mail, Dropbox, GoodReader, MobileMe iDisk, Readdle Docs and lots more. To save a webpage, the change the “http” at the beginning of the URL to “pdfhttp” within Safari — it’s that simple.
Of course, once you’ve converted your documents into PDFs, you can store them away neatly in your iBooks library.
