brekk · Mar 3, 2014

I dunno why I haven't posted this before. Site of random freeware tools, all simple and amazingly useful.

Is there a 'Must Have Apps' thread somewhere that I've missed?

Just found this little gem for those that have to deal with shitty scanner software.

I need an Image to PDF Converter full version for free. I need to be able to convert 2-20 Images into one PDF Doc not 2-20 individual PDFs.

Any suggestions?

Lenas · Nov 21, 2014

if you're on a Mac you can use it with the built in Preview application.

Otherwise, I dunno, try thisJPG to PDF - Convert your Images to PDFs online for free!

Nitro Reader will do image -> PDF, but I think it only does 1 file at a time in free mode. Can't remember.

Office (2007 on i think) can save to pdf.

I guess this is the best place to ask this, I'm looking for a piece of windows software that will strip DRM from iTunes movies. Anyone have any advice on what is good or bad? What are you using that works well?

Any recommendations on screen sharing software? I see Chrome has an app that will allow remote access, but I'm not sure that's necessary. Just want to help a friend out while he drafts in Hearthstone.

I use some of the VNC stuff at work, it seems alright albeit slow. You can use Teamviewer for free. The plus side is there are ios/google apps for Teamviewer so you can even watch him from your phone/tablet. I use it from work to do WoW garrison missions.

Teamviewer for sure

Rerolled Bros - What's a preferred [free] PDF editor? My company changed up their expense report process and we need to combine everything into a single PDF and all our company has is Adobe Reader. Which doesn't let you combine individual PDF docs or edit them. Pretty ridiculous to enforce a new process which requires software we don't even have.

Re-building my laptop. Is Microsoft Security Essentials still enough for Anti-Virus or should I be using something else these days?

Windows 7 if that matters.

I'm not too sure about a completely free one that is going to let you actually edit them (text in particular), and be worth a shit. I'm interested in hearing the answer to this question as well.

Any advice for a go to Media Converter? I basically want to change a bunch of videos into another format. Nothing crazy, but I am new to this.

ended up going with avast based on the internet telling me to.

I enjoy Avast. Been using it for the past 5ish years. Free virus protection that doesn't bog down your system at the same time.

Good stuff.

This software is simple to use, but WTF is this shit? 2 hour paused encode for a pay-popup? Right at the first time using it?
