There are three licensing options for novaPDF Printer: Lite, Standard and Professional. All of them implement the basic functionalities of a PDF Printer: print from any Windows application, predefined page sizes, custom page sizes, page orientation, printing resolution, document scaling, PDF document information, automatically save and open PDF file, select user interface language, etc.

The Standard Edition has additional features, like: zoom and margins, text and image compression, font embedding and sub-setting, user profiles.

The Professional Edition adds PDF security, PDF Links, Email and Bookmarks to the features of Standard Edition.

If you only want to create simple PDF files, with no advanced options, you should choose the Lite edition. When printing to novaPDF Printer Lite, you can only choose the printing options (page size, resolution, etc.), fill the PDF document information (title, subject, etc.) or enter the name of the resulting PDF file.

If you want to have the possibility to choose from different levels of compression, to control font or font subset embedding then go for the Standard Edition.

If you want to apply PDF security for the resulting PDF files, if you want to detect PDF Links and PDF Bookmarks, or if you want to automatically send the PDF file by email, then you will need the Professional Edition.

You can also choose between Desktop edition or Server edition. If you use novaPDF printer on only one computer or your computers are not permanently connecyed in a network, you should choose the Desktop edition. If you want to use novaPDF Printer as a shared network printer or in a Terminal Server environment, you should choose the Server edition. The Server edition adds features like license management and public profiles.
