One of the best purchases I have made in 2009 was a PDF editor. I use Nuance® PDF Converter Professional 5. It has been “the cats meow!!” I am able to take PDFs from the bank, add my client’s information, put in signature tags or highlight relevant passages and forward them by email to my clients. Plus I able to add my electronic signature to save from printing out the document, signing and rescanning it.
The best has been with my Hardship Packages. This has been a real time saver. I am able to attach the PA, all the documents for the short sale. Plus comps and statistics into one PDF. I can also add a header to each page with my contact info, the borrowers name, loan number and page number. If you have Efax or an equivalent product the world becomes even brighter. With my faxes coming in and going out from my PC, I can save paper and able to edit faxes (i.e. take out the unnecessary documents from a fax and just send out what is pertinent). I can do all of this with out printing a page.
All of these tools cut at least one to two weeks off my short sale approvals and hours off of the time for me to rescan documents.
Check it out, you’ll thank me.

I'll checking this out, too. I love anything that makes my world paperless. These are the kinds of posts I love.
Hi Mike;
Great tips I will check it out, thank you!
How do you find the PDF editor software packages compare with Adobe Acrobat itself (full version, not just the Reader)?
Richard,
First the PDF editor is a lot less expensive. It was either $150 or $99. This is the converter professional version. As for Adobe professional, I have never used it, so I can not compare. I assume Adobe professional has more bells and whistles, but I am happy with Nuance® PDF Converter Professional 5.
