One of the less free applications that support AES256 encryption for PDF creation. Merge function works quite well and useabilty is also good.

One of the less free applications that support AES256 encryption for PDF creation. Merge function works quite well and useabilty is also good.
I don't like this. It has some options like embedding fonts but ultimately all I ever got was a filename.pdf.prn file. I never got an actual PDF. I also could not find any option to print "borderless" on Windows 11 so all my documents with full bleed and 1" margins would actually print with a 1" white border around the page, ruining the borderless look I created. This application simply is not up to the task, it's no better than Microsoft Print to PDF.
Resulting PDF contained gibberish instead of any sort of real text. Uninstalled.
