If you want to add pictures to the PDF, however, you’ll need to download an additional free program, called Formulate Pro. You need to drag the icon _on top of_ the other PDF’s icon then they’ll merge (you can confirm this from the change in the window’s title bar) and you can save under a new name. The confusing part for many people is that if you do the intuitive thing and drag one icon below the other, that’s not a merge: that just displays multiple PDFs in one window. Then you drag the page icons across from one sidebar to the other. To merge: first you open the PDFs you want to merge in separate Preview windows, and show the Sidebar for each window. To split a PDF, just save the same file under a few different names, select the page icons you don’t want in each sidebar, hit the Delete button on your keyboard, and save again. (It can also add all kinds of annotations.)įirst, make Preview’s Sidebar visible. On the Mac, you can split or merge PDFs without installing any third-party software: the standard “Preview” application can do this on its own. For the price of free, I have no complaints with it.

I did this a few times with various options enabled, and the size of the final PDF differed a bit depending on what I selected. In my tests, I merged various eBooks to form a single book.

The program is available as a portable version. PDFsam Basic does not require Java to be installed, it comes with the required files needed to run the application. It just serves as an ad for the paid versions, and you can ignore it or disable the Premium section from the settings. There is a whole section of Premium features that you obviously can't use in the free version. You can also extract the pages by using the page ranges selection tool (like extracting a Chapter). This option is handy if you just want to extract one or two pages, to use for reference or quick access. RotateĮver had a PDF which had pages or pictures in landscape mode? This set of options in PDFsam can be used to rotate individual pages, all pages, odd or even pages of a PDF, by 90 or 180 degrees clockwise, or 90 degrees anti-clockwise. There are two more ways to Split PDFs: by bookmarks and by size (in KB and MB). There are a few different ways to split a PDF including: after each page, odd or even pages, split after specific page numbers, or after every "n" pages (for e.g. If you have a large PDF that you wish to break down into smaller documents, you can do that with PDFsam.

So it will use a page from the first PDF followed by one from the 2nd PDF, and so on to mix and merge the document. The Mix and merge section of the sidebar uses pages in alternating order from two or more PDFs to create a single PDF. So in conclusion, I think there are enough good reasons and sufficient pressure that such solutions are unlikely to become either ubiquitous or ignored, although they will continue to be used on a small scale both legitimately and to distribute malware.You can customize the destination folder where the PDF should be saved, and also set the name of the new file using the "Destination" section.

Not catching viruses, nagware and spyware is not a good business model to use as an antivirus company. In this sense, such a solution is actually a security threat to you business model.įinally, antivirus and antispyware producers are not going to ignore malware distribution in installers - even innocent installers could potentially be corrupted or be tampered with. Distributing nagware or malware to your customers will do nothing for your goodwill and continuing business.

Personally, I would not distribute my software with any kind of add-on bundling solution, especially one which has links with malware distribution, however tenuous, if an alternative existed. So InstallIQ has an uphill battle to become ubiquitous. Aside from MSI, other popular windows installers include NSIS (which I believe Mozilla use) or InstallShield. For example, MSI is Microsoft's preferred solution and integrates best with the likes of WSUS. There are many competing installer packages available in the market and many are considered more reputable. I understand your concern, but I'm going to say no. Will there come a point that this becomes so ubiquitous that ESET stops flagging it as Adware?

Is there anything malicious InstallIQ does that I have missed?įrom what I can gather, InstallIQ in and of itself does not actually install anything malicious - however, it does provide mechanisms for third parties to bundle additional "offers" with products at install-time, which is a very attractive proposition for malware/spyware authors.
