PDF Toolkit

You may be looking for a simple application that can help you perform various operations with PDF files. If that is the case, you should try PDF Toolkit.

It is a lightweight program that you can use to merge multiple documents into a single file, split large PDFs, password-protect or decrypt them. It features a minimalistic interface, allows you to split files into custom page ranges and offers a complex encryption function.

If you wish to join multiple documents, all you need to do is load the list of files to be processed, place them in the correct order and begin the operation. You can also save the document list to a project file, to quickly load them again at a later date.

PDF Toolkit also enables you to split multiple large documents in several ways. The application can create a new PDF file from each page or split documents based on user-defined page ranges.

The program allows you to choose between 40-bit or 128-bit encryption and you can protect the document with user and owner passwords.

You can specify which actions unauthorized users should not be allowed to perform. These include printing, copying content, filling out forms and modifying annotations.

PDF Toolkit also enables you to remove passwords and restrictions from secured documents.

The application features a minimalistic user interface that takes up very little screen space and offers easy access to its primary functions.

However, when choosing the target location for split, encrypted or decrypted documents, you are required to use macros to specify the output path and file name. It would help if the application offered an easier way to save documents and set up custom naming schemes.

PDF Toolkit is a useful application that can help you merge, split, encrypt and decrypt PDF files. It features a minimalistic interface, but does not offer a simple way to choose output paths and establish file naming schemes.
