Nuance Offers Dragon Dictation with New PDF Converter Enterprise 8

Nuance has released Nuance PDF Converter Enterprise 8, a platform that lets users share documents and collaborate with new connections to Web and cloud technologies.

The updated version also features Dragon Dictation, which allows users to use speech to create text for sticky notes or input text into a PDF document. The release adds cloud-based PDF Collaboration, enabling simultaneous editing of the same PDF by multiple users, document and screen sharing, and chat and voice sessions during the editing process.

Other features include:

Editing features that make it as easy to edit a PDF file as a Microsoft Word document.

Documents can be securely saved to cloud services PaperPort Anywhere, Evernote, or Dropbox.

Forms enhancement: Users can take a nonfillable form and convert it into a fillable PDF form that can be completed, saved, and emailed. They can also build cross-platform PDF forms by adding text fields, checkboxes, and radio buttons. New features include data extraction from forms and batch export of data to .csv and .xml files.

"PDF Converter Enterprise 8 represents a giant leap forward for businesses and people working with PDF files," said Michael Rich, general manager and senior vice president for Nuance's Document Imaging Division, in a statement. "Nuance is focused on helping organizations and individuals work smarter and faster, and PDF Converter 8 makes working with PDFs a much simpler, more streamlined process that saves workers time and saves money for the organization."
