Microsoft Word export highlights PDFpen overhaul

Smile on Tuesday released the latest versions of PDFpen and PDFpenPro, the company’s popular and long-running PDF-editing apps for the Mac.

Version 6.0 of the PDFpen software features a new option to export documents to Microsoft Word format. The app has also been optimized for high-definition Retina displays, and features a new toolbar for easier access to editing tools.

While all users can take advantage of the app’s existing sync via Dropbox, users who now purchase PDFpen through the Mac App Store will also be able to sync the app with its iOS counterpart via iCloud. Other upgrades include annotation filtering and the ability to drag-and-drop to reorder items in the app’s library.

PDFpenPro includes all those upgrades as well as two additional ones: Users can now edit document permissions to restrict saving, printing, and copying; the app can also automatically create form fields in a non-interactive form.
