If you are looking for tons of PDF books to read, that’s the right place. As a matter of fact I want to introduce to you a wonderful website which, by using the powerful Google Search Engine and one of its unknown features, is able to find millions of e-books in one click! The feature or I’d better say the piece of code I was talking about lets you find whatever extension you want in the Internet, without getting crazy among Google results. The code to use is: Ext. But let’s see an example. Let’s say that you are looking for an e-book having the following extension .txt (which is the one used by the notebook application in Windows). The e-book you are searching for is the famous Dracula. Here is the code you will have to write in the Google Search bar: dracula ext:txt The results you will get will contain the word Dracula, the extension .txt and the relative file to download. PDF Search Engine does exactly this: filter Google results. But the web engine goes beyond it. In fact it shows you the PDF files in an ordered and neat list, leaving behind all the useless results you are not interested in.

If you want to create or convert your documents to PDF files there are a lot of solutions in the Internet for you to try. Here and here you can find some examples.

Thanks to PdfMeNot reading a PDF file without using Adobe Reader (which, in some cases, slow your computer down) is not impossible anymore. As a matter of fact this nice website lets you converter any PDF documents located on your computer or in any website with a couple of simple steps. But PdfMeNot goes beyond all this. In fact, it lets you download a Firefox extension to have such an important resource always at hand in your browser. Besides, if you are a webmaster PdfMeNot may be very helpful to you. In fact, if you want your visitors to read important PDF documents within your blog’s pages, you can do it by embedding a special code provided by PdfMeNot once a certain document has been converted. Look at the example here. I like this website a lot and I strongly recommend it to bloggers who are always looking for applications to embed documents and pics in their blogs in an easy and painless way.

There are many applications on the Internet able to convert .doc files into .pdf files but there are very few of them able to do the opposite. Actually you can find some of them, but they are all shareware applications costing some money and maybe you are just looking for something simple that comes for free. Here is your reply. The FREE PDF to WORD CONVERTER (well, a little more fantasy was required here on the author’s side) is able to transform a document into a pdf with just few easy steps. The free software works from pdf 1.0 to pdf 1.6 and can only convert English pdf files.
