Even though Apple refuses to include Flash support in its iOS-based devices, Adobe keeps investing in Apple’s mobile platform. Their latest iGig is CreatePDF, the iOS application that allows users to create PDF files with their iPhones, iPod Touches and iPads.
According to the app’s official description, CreatePDF will make files that look exactly like the original using the same technology as Adobe Acrobat. Links, notes and bookmarks will automatically be created when PDF files are converted from Office documents; and transitions kept in place when the starting file is a PowerPoint presentation. As a matter of fact, CreatePDF can work with a number of file formats, including Microsoft Office, OpenOffice, StarOffice, RTF, text and Word Perfect documents; JPEG, BMP, PNG, GIF and TIFF images; as well as Adobe Illustrator, Photoshop and InDesign files.
That’s all nice, but how much that costs? The answer is 10 bucks, which is kinda lot for an app these days. Then again for real mobile warriors creating PDF files while on the go is a must-have capability and pouring out $9.99 for that feature is not a big deal…

Dusan has been using smartphones since their introduction and is now following the latest trends in the industry. The "convergence" is what he's most excited about, and writing about it is the next logical thing to do. He thinks that using a smartphone is what everyone who cares about their time should do. In addition to his interests in mobile phones, Dusan also loves to experiment with the latest web and mobile 2.0 services. The idea of accessing and managing your information from any device no matter where you are simply amazes him. Whether it's an online to-do list, note taking service or a video sharing social network, he's there to try it out. He admits though, he's still searching for the ultimate web-based organizational tool, which "sings" perfectly with the mobile PIM application. Dusan used to run SymbianWatch.com which later became part of IntoMobile. He lives in Serbia, South-East Europe, from where he edits the site on a daily basis.
