The software is customizable to meet business needs, regardless of company size or nature,\u201d said Emmanuel Catimbang, Channel and OEM Manager, APAC at Nuance Communications, Inc.<\/p>\n<p>Catimbang claims the demand for PDF software is growing as PDF print drivers have created a surge in PDF files which now need to be managed, edited, and secured.<\/p>\n<p>The Power PDF 2 provides tools intended to make businesses more secure and productive. These include form publishing\/creation, editing, scanning, commenting, conversion, forms, security, search and file storage.

It boasts of having a productivity tool \u2013 Dragon NaturallySpeaking speech recognition solution \u2013 which can transcribe and fill in forms via speech-to-text integration.<\/p>\n<p>Derek Austin, Director, APAC at Dragon Solutions, noted that Dragon Speech Recognition solution is available in more than one language \u2013 English, French, German, Italian, Spanish, Japanese. He also said that they have solutions in different operating system.<\/p>\n<p>Sunny Lun, Senior Presales Consultant, Imaging Desktop &amp; DNS Solutions, APAC at Nuance Communications, noted that Power PDF 2 allows connection to a cloud storage system. \u201cWe do have our own cloud storage to do the conversion and modify contents,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>Multiple documents can be opened from cloud storage to combine into one PDF document, according to Lun. \u201cThat\u2019s what we call assembly, or to combine into a single PDF or even to what we call portfolio as well. We have the feature to combine the PDF together.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>WSI, as the exclusive distributor of the product, offers pricing and licensing structures that can help customers save on deployment cost.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe Power PDF 2 can be bought on a per box product or license basis.
