Solid PDF Creator is proprietary document processing software which converts virtually any Windows-based document into a PDF. Suitable for home and office use, the program appears as a printer option in the Print menu of any print-capable Windows application.

Version 9.0, released in June 2014, sees conversion and table reconstruction improvements, less XML output, and feature integration.
