Actually Ron this software is now free [b:2op2gmzo][i:2op2gmzo]forever[/i:2op2gmzo][/b:2op2gmzo] for private use. There is no time limit on the availability of the free download, provided it is being being used for private purposes only.

This quote from the product page:
[b:2op2gmzo][i:2op2gmzo]"Free Keycode is available for this version permanently! But Free offer cannot be used for commercial usage!" [/i:2op2gmzo][/b:2op2gmzo]

That said, you are quite right about the shortage of good freeware PDF to Word converters so it is a welcome addition to the freeware ranks....even if it is an older version.

Thanks for the post,
Cheers....JIM

Hey Ron - Yes, well I admit it is a tad confusing. They start off by saying:[i:2d2ir6tx] "FREE Offer Expires on Mar. 1, 2010".[/i:2d2ir6tx] Then, shortly thereafter they say: [i:2d2ir6tx]"Free Keycode is available for this version permanently![/i:2d2ir6tx]

Those statements are contradictory. How can a free offer 'expire' for something which is permanently available for free? Doesn't make much sense to me!!

Anyway mate, main thing is....it [i:2d2ir6tx]is[/i:2d2ir6tx] available for free, whether that be until 1st March or forever I guess only time will tell.

Cheers....JIM

LOL......I go along with that Ron.

I can only guess that it is part of a marketing ploy: headlines like 'Special Offer' and 'Giveaway For Limited Time' would be deemed to have a lot more impact than ...we have an older version which is now available as freeware.

Cheers mate....JIM
