When you run your own business you take care of the revenue side first and the pro bono side on a as time allows basis.

It seems that everytime someone mentions ABC Amber or the Process Text Group you sing the same refrain of rubbish or worse. I pointed out that the free Sony converter still did not meet your standards for a giveaway product. Many of us find their tools valuable and are thankful for the contributions that the Process Text Group has made to out community through the free tools.
Actually, I bought their PDF Converter and I am very happy with it's performance and the results it creates. About the only issue I had with it was that it ran out of memory when I did a batch conversion of 14000+ pdf files.... But then.... I would have been more surprised if it had been able to handle it without problems
