Nitro also makes itself an indispensable part of Office with its range of plug-ins, and version 9.0 adds an Outlook plugin to existing add-ons for Word, Excel and PowerPoint.

The results are successful, reducing the already shallow learning curve still further, although it’s not innovative, with rival PDF tool Foxit having beaten it to the punch by a few months. The reasoning is that it provides a familiar environment for Office users, so it’s no surprise that version 9.0 evolves this look to tie in more closely to the new Windows 8 and Office 2013 look. Nitro Pro has long modelled itself on Microsoft’s beloved ribbon interface that is now as much a part of Windows as it is of Office. Throw in form filling, collaboration tools and the ability to combine PDF files from multiple documents, and you have a tool that - if not quite the equal of Adobe Acrobat - is more than capable for most people’s needs at less than a third of the price, even after the recent hike. Nitro pairs this functionality with a set of powerful editing tools, with both line- and paragraph-based text editing possible alongside the ability to swap out or insert images. And if you want to scan in a paper document, Nitro also comes with its own - less impressive, but still serviceable - OCR engine, based on Readiris to ensure the resulting document’s text is editable too. Nitro Pro offers more intuitive PDF creation tools, allowing you to create PDFs from documents like Word that can subsequently be re-edited in Nitro using its own powerful text-editing tools.

While a growing number of free products - in particular Nitro’s little brother Nitro Reader - can create PDF files from other documents, they typically employ the services of a virtual print driver to produce little more than an image of the original file.

Nitro Pro is a powerful tool for creating, editing and converting PDF documents. The question, then, is if Nitro Pro 9 is new and improved enough to justify the extra outlay?

Unfortunately, though, those extra features come with an inflated cost, with the main program costing $20 more than last year’s release, while the price of an upgrade has sneaked up too - by $5 to $54.99.
