these files are open you can add, remove or edit bookmarks and comments/annotations;
search for text items and correct them. In addition to this, you can mark page areas or
text for

redaction.

This is the process of “blacking” out the page content to censor,

One of the best features of Corel PDF Fusion is the ability to drag-and-drop one or more
pages from one document into another. This lets you combine documents, which may
exist in various document formats, into a single coherent document. You can save this
new document in one of the various common file formats. Corel PDF Fusion is used to
convert documents from one document format into another.

You don’t need to convert files to modify them. The output document format is decided
when you save.

Corel PDF Converter lets you create PDF, XPS and Word files from a variety of desktop
document formats. This is done by dragging-and-dropping files onto the application. You
can print to the Corel PDF printer from your desktop applications and create PDF files.

3.2 How do you use Corel PDF Fusion?

This section gives you an overview of how to use Corel PDF Fusion.

3.2.1 Using Corel PDF Fusion

Corel PDF Fusion is easy to use. You can create a new document or open one or more
existing documents to modify. You can drag and drop pages from one document into
another to combine these documents. For example, you can open PDF or XPS
documents and combine pages from these documents in any way you choose.

When you have finished building your document you can save it in PDF, XPS or Word
formats.

Corel PDF Fusion has four ways of viewing your documents:

• Page View is where you view a single document, correct text, and add bookmarks and
annotations. See “Page View” on page 31.

• Assembly View presents all open documents simultaneously, and provides the ability to
change, combine and assemble pages. See “Assembly View” on page 37.

NOTE: Multiple documents can be opened, each one identified by its own tab. Use drag-and drop to re-

order these tabs.

3.2.1.1 Notes on converting Microsoft Office Word, Excel or PowerPoint documents

If you attempt to open a Microsoft Office document (Word, Excel or PowerPoint) using
drag and drop, but the document is already open in the Microsoft application, a warning
dialog is displayed. To continue, close the document in the Microsoft Office application
and select Retry. This converts the document using the Corel PDF Converter printer
driver. Select Ignore to import the document using Corel Fusion’s own import facility.

3.2.2 Using Corel PDF Converter

With Corel PDF Converter you start the program, choose your desired output format
and then drag and drop files for conversion onto the application. Alternatively, print to
the Corel PDF printer from your Desktop or Office applications.

3.3 What is a document format or PDL?

Corel PDF Fusion supports several document formats sometimes called PDLs (Page

escription Languages). PDLs are the different ways that applications internally describe

D
the content of documents. Corel PDF Fusion can use the following document formats:

PDF

(Portable Document Format.) A file format created by Adobe Systems
for document exchange. Several versions of PDF are used including v1.3,
v1.4, v1.5, v1.6, and v1.7. PDF files have a file extension of .pdf.

PDF files can be selected for input to and output from Corel PDF Fusion.

NOTE: Corel PDF Fusion opens documents that are PDF compatible, but not named with a *.pdf

extension. When documents of this type are subsequently saved a .pdf extension is added to the
file name.

PDF/A-1b

A file format designed for the long-term archiving of documents. PDF/A­1b is a subset of PDF, omitting those PDF features which are not suited
to archiving.

You can select text items (from a single character to all of the document). Text selection
can cross page boundaries and the selected text can be copied to, and pasted from, the
clipboard.

For PDF documents, text extraction is subject to the document's security settings.

3.4.6 Text searching

You can search open documents for specific text or phrases. Search options include case
sensitive search, forward or backward directions, search for whole words only.

3.4.7 Text correction

When text is selected small modifications can be made to that text. The style of any new
text is the same as the selected text and no text reflow (word wrapping) is performed.
If the text you type goes over the edge of the page it is clipped. Adding new lines and
correction of more than a single line is not possible.

Correction of non-horizontal text is not supported.

If you attempt to correct a character that does not exist in the current font, a font
substitution mechanism is used to try and find the best match.

3.4.8 Redact text

Corel PDF Fusion allows the redaction (obliteration) of text found during a search
operation. You can specify whether you want the text redacting on the first occurrence
only or all the text within a document. This action can, when required, be performed on
all open documents.

The redaction function can redact arbitrary areas of the page. This allows, for example,
all or parts of images to be blacked out.

A “redact all” function is available that is used to redact all instances of a name (for
example). Any redactions applied in this manner cannot be undone.

Once a redaction action has been performed on a page, any object that intersects with
the redacted area is “flattened” into an image with the original objects removed. This
means that any such objects are replaced by images. Therefore, they cannot
subsequently be selected or manipulated. For example, if such an object is text, it will no
longer be available for selection for highlighting or correction.

When an area is selected for redaction any text which is intersected by that area is also
redacted.

• Page cropping.

You have the ability to change various pieces of page level information. For example, the
page size.

• Font substitution.

Some documents (with the exception of XPS documents) refer to external fonts, which
might not always be available on the system where Corel PDF Fusion is running. Corel
PDF Fusion can recover from this situation by applying a font substitution from the fonts
stored on the computer.

When font substitutions are performed, they are only applied to render the open
document to the screen. Font substitutions are not written to the file when the
document is saved.

NOTE: The XPS document format requires that all fonts are embedded. In this case Corel PDF Fusion

embeds in the XPS an emulated font that corresponds to the missing font.

prompt is presented for every open document that has unsaved
changes. Use the Apply to all files check box to apply your Yes, No or
Cancel choice to all documents. If this is not selected, a save prompt is
presented for each individual modified document.

3.4.18 Feature transfer and document compatibility

Corel PDF Fusion supports the conversion of documents between various formats.
While all document formats naturally support a broad spectrum of common features, it
is inevitable that some features that are specific to one format are not available in
another. Annotations, for example, are supported in PDF, but not currently in the XPS
document format. Furthermore, some formats—most importantly PDF—exist in
multiple versions, where new versions have introduced features that are not available in
older versions.

Corel PDF Fusion allows conversion between document formats (and differing versions
of formats). It also allows for the transfer of pages between documents in its workspace,
without requiring those documents to be in the same version of a format, or even in the
same format at all.

The end result is that Corel PDF Fusion needs to deal with various cases where a
document (or page) contains features that cannot be accommodated by the target
document. The following provides some information on how Corel PDF Fusion handles
specific conversions:

The destination document dictates the version number of the combined
result. For instance, when a page is dragged from a PDF 1.5 document
into a PDF 1.6 document, the latter stays as a PDF 1.6, rather than being
downgraded to 1.5.

PDF to PDF of an older version

All features of the input document are preserved in the output
document.

When moving pages to a PDF document of an older version, Corel PDF
Fusion performs a check on the page content to determine whether any
features are used that are unavailable in the older version. If such features
are found, a warning is displayed indicating that these features are lost.

PDF to XPS

All features that are common to XPS and PDF are preserved.

Features that are specific to PDF (such as annotations) are dropped.

All non-normal blend modes and complex shading are rendered when
converting from PDF to XPS.
