Osaka, Japan, July 13, 2006 - Recosoft Corporation the developer of cross platform Macintosh and Windows file format conversion solutions and PDF document conversion tools has released PDF2Office Professional v3.1 for Mac OS X.

PDF2Office Professional v3.1 marks Recosoft's first step in delivering a complete Universal Binary version of PDF2Office Professional for the Macintosh platform. PDF2Office Services, which enhances integration of PDF2Office Professional with Mac OS X is now a Universal Binary delivering native performance on Macintosh computers equipped with the Intel processor.

PDF2Office recreates the original construction and layout of the document - forming paragraphs; applying styles; regrouping independent graphic elements; extracting images; creating tables; and processing headers/footers, endnotes/footnotes and columns/sections, all automatically - without any manual intervention

PDF2Office enables you to recover the data stored in PDF documents - making them available for use by anyone. Since PDF2Office is a standalone product, it is not necessary to acquire and install additional PDF editing software and tools resulting in huge cost savings in both time and expense.
