You can create a PDF directly from your clipboard.

1. Choose File > Create > From Clipboard, or choose Convert > From Clipboard.
2. The texts or images in the clipboard will be converted to a new PDF file.

You can create a PDF from a blank page rather than beginning with a file, a clipboard image, or scanning.

You can easily merge files of different types into a single PDF or a PDF portfolio, or you can also convert them into separate PDFs.

Convert and combine multiple files into a single PDF or a PDF portfolio

You can create a PDF from any file that prints. 

1. Launch Foxit PDF Editor, choose File > Create > From File, or choose Convert > From Files > From File.

2. In the Open dialog box, navigate through your local disk to select a local file, or click Open from ECM to select a file from ECM systems or cloud services. Then click Open to start the conversion. 

Foxit PDF Editor can create any kind of printable files to PDF simply by dragging the file into the program window; alternatively, you can use Foxit PDF Editor to quickly convert files to PDF directly from within Windows^® Explorer. 

To create a PDF with one click:

Similar to Microsoft Word, Foxit PDF Editor counts words, characters, pages, lines and other information in all or part of your document. With no text selected, click View > Word Count, and you will see a pop-up Word Count box for the statistics of the entire document. For a partial word count, just select the text you want to count, and then click View > Word Count; or right click the selected text and choose Word Count from the context menu.

The Document Compare feature lets you see the difference in two versions of a PDF, as well as select the type of differences you’re looking for to verify that the appropriate changes have been made. The Document Compare feature does not compare comments in the PDF.

Comparing a revised PDF to an earlier version

Foxit PDF Editor enables you to define a collection of PDFs as a catalog and create a full-text index for the cataloged PDFs, allowing you to search that index through the Advanced Search feature. See also Searching PDF indexes. 

For a PDF document that includes an embedded index, you can search the document as you always do through the Advanced Search feature, but it will be much faster than you search a regular PDF without an embedded index. (Note: Before searching a document with an embedded index, you need to select the Enable embed index option in File > Preferences > Index.)

The Search panel is displayed on the right of the document pane.  When you put the cursor along the left border of the Search panel, the cursor turns into . Then you can click on the left border to hide or show the Search panel, or drag the border to adjust its width.
