Quick PDF Library 7.17 released

Looks like we’ve been quiet on this for a while — you can download a copy of our latest Quick PDF Library (version 7.17) here. It’s now Unicode ready and is a free upgrade for all version 7.X users.

Probably the most significant addition to this new build is the Demo app that we’ve included. It uses Quick PDF Library 7.17 and VBScript – check it out…

Support for direct file linking added to Benubird

With the release of Benubird PDF 1.4.0.5, you can now link directly to files, rather than use Benubird’s internal repository. This is a much requested feature which allows you to combine your existing Windows Explorer file structure with Benubird’s data management.

The new version can be downloaded online and as with the previous version, it’s completely free!

We know that a lot of people have been looking forward to this new version with direct linking, so we’d love to hear your feedback on the forum about this latest release.

Benubird Pro now freeware and relaunched as Benubird PDF 1.4

In fitting with the introduction of the rest of our product line-up, ie. Quick PDF Library and freebie mini-app Quick PDF Tools, we’re now tweaking our focus to take advantage of our strong PDF background (and what we see as the core of the paperless trail today).

Yes, we’re powering up Benubird to really focus on PDF (mostly by way of using our sophisticated Quick PDF Library).

Therefore, we’ve made some small changes to Benubird such as in-built PDF Preview, moveable repository/library and PDF metadata to file metadata syncing.  And whilst we work behind-the-scenes on bolting on an even greater range of PDF features and options, we’re making the current version freeware.

We’d like to see you drop by the forum and chat with the other users. So please, feel free to download and install Benubird PDF on as many computers as you like … 

BTW — don’t worry, if you’re a paid-for-customer of the original Benubird Pro, we appreciate your support and we’re going to be offering you a free-upgrade to the commercial Benubird PDF Pro upon release.

This feature was requested by a large number of customers and as is our policy, if the majority of customers want a feature; we’re happy to provide it to them.
