Don't waste your time trying
Don't waste your time trying this one. The so-called "Just-for-once" registration thing makes you solve a complicated mathematical question, not once, but EVERY time you do a PDF conversion. I used Excel to solve the question the first time, got the registration number, and proceeded. (Conversion result: very ordinary - cannot handle images very well). Then I tried another conversion, and was forced to go to the website and do another maths trick for another "just-for-once" registration number. This dopey trick is utterly annoying. Spread the word - software advertised as "free" that makes you jump through such idiotic hoops is no better than malware and deserves our contempt.

There's a way around the required code.
I'm sure once they read this they'll change the setup...so keep the setup file, actually you can simply copy the install directory; no fancy setup schemes there.
In all honesty, there are free online sites, and actually $15 is not bad for what it does. It actually does a good conversion job. The convenience here is that you can have a copy on your USB drive.
It's a minor pain but you can bypass code inside the options.ini file and edit the "usetime=" back to 0 or 1. I tried to make ini read-only but it doesn't like that. Another way is to make a batch file that makes a copy, overwrites the original ini each time, but again its too much woirk for the cost.

It is as said. i downloaded and installed the software . It worked for a couple of then to get a free reg. code it asked to calcutes math prblem and it is quites annoying. Why is everyone following he same technique.
The free software and all that is misleading...

So is there an unlock key floating around? I guess it's not illegal to unlock "free" software :)
