September 21, 2005

ARTS PDF, the award-winning and category-leading developer of "PDF power tools" for business, including many Fortune 500 firms, announced today that Nitro PDF™ Professional is now the #1 seller on the industry's leading online PDF retail site, www.pdfstore.com.

ARTS PDF COO Sam Chandler said Nitro PDF™ Professional, which was upgraded only last month with powerful new enterprise-class features, had hit a record 50,000 downloads putting them well on target for sales north of 100,000 units by the end of 2005.

Nitro Pro, which boasts US-based customer support, is a strong seller and has attracted glowing reviews from industry leaders such as PDF industry guru and author of the Adobe^® Acrobat^® PDF Bible, Ted Padova.

eContent Magazine is the latest publication to rave about Nitro Pro. For a full list of leading industry Product Reviews, visit www.nitropdf.com.

"Enterprises in particular are backing Nitro Pro, secure in the knowledge that ARTS PDF has an aggressive upgrade program for the product which will keep it as the category leader for years to come," says Chandler.

"As the PDF experts, ARTS PDF has the technology, knowledge and development capabilities to continually supercharge Nitro Pro with regular upgrades -- something our competitors have yet to assure the PDF customer."

"Many of the new features of the latest upgrade are unique in the marketplace and represent hundreds of dollars worth of comparative value," Chandler said.

"Until now you had to buy Acrobat^® for $300+ and an Acrobat^® plug-in, like ARTS PDF Aerialist, for another $300+. Now we're including some of this power-user functionality in Nitro PDF."

Competitively priced at $99 and available now, the new Nitro Pro gives users full control over PDF documents, including commenting, form-filling and authoring, digital signatures, text editing, advanced document manipulation, PDF-to-Word conversion, one-click creation from Microsoft Office and more.

What industry leaders are saying about Nitro PDF Professional:

Ted Padova says: "Nitro PDF is an extraordinary PDF creation and editing tool. It's a powerhouse companion for Microsoft^® Office users who want to easily create, manipulate and share PDF documents."

PDFzone says: "ARTS PDF remade the market for PDF software by announcing Nitro PDF."

eWeek says: "Nitro PDF's speed distinguishes it from its rivals," and "Nitro PDF is easy to use and has a great interface."

Donna Baker, author, Adobe^® Acrobat^® 7 in the Office says: "Wow, I am thoroughly impressed. Nitro PDF provides an enormous amount of functionality for the price point."
