TRANSCRIPT:  (full transcript link)

Hello and welcome to episode number twenty of the one-five. I am your podcast hostess - Tricia Louis - the self-designated tech goddess and I will be coming to you weekly in this audio podcast format with great edtech tools, tips, and tricks.

In this week’s episode, I will be talking about PDF Candy. Now this sounds like some delicious treat you might get on vacation at a fancy chocolate store, but even though it is NOT something to eat, it is still quite delicious. PDF Candy is one of those websites that earns a spot on your bookmarks bar as you will always find a need for it. What does PDF Candy do - well what doesn’t it do. Anytime you want to do something to a PDF or convert something into a PDF, PDF Candy is your one-stop shop. Simply upload your file and then choose from nearly 50 different PDF related actions. All of the PDF actions are super easy to use and you can even choose from your cloud storage (like google drive or dropbox). You can even create a favorites list of your most used PDF actions.

The site is free to use, but there are daily limits on how many files you can convert if you are using the free version. If you are a power PDF user, you may want to pay the $36/year fee to have unlimited access to the site.

PDF Candy even has a handy chrome extension if you prefer that instead of a bookmark.

I can tell you that PDF Candy has come to the rescue for me when I have had those situations where I needed to get a file into a PDF format OR get a PDF into a different file type. Like I said before, it is super simple to use and I recommend you add this to your web toolkit!
