Microsoft Word documents can be read by almost anyone these days, but the PDF format still has a few advantages. This application provides a simple way to convert Word files into PDF documents from inside the word-processing application itself.

Once the program is installed, another special driver must be downloaded; then the PDF toolbar must be enabled inside Microsoft Word via a right click of the mouse. This provides a basic range of options, allowing files to be resized or compressed while they're converted. It does lack some advanced features, such as the capability to remove pictures from the original file while saving just the text.

The conversion itself takes just seconds, after which the user simply has to select a folder in which to save the output. Given this program's convenient plug-in interface and minimal drag on system resources, we can recommend this download to Microsoft Word users who want to transfer

NovaBACKUP is windows backup software that’s complex and flexible at the same time. This application’s interface is split into two views: a Simple View catered towards beginners and an Advanced View with features for data backup experts. The features from one view are slightly different from what you’ll find in the other. When you choose this application, you’re essentially getting two complex applications rolled into one. With a multitude of powerful features and an easy to use interface, NovaBACKUP is our TopTenREVIEWS Gold Award winner for Windows backup software.

Backup & Restore Options:

Essentially, NovaBACKUP has two similar feature sets in its Simple View and Advanced View. These feature sets provide advanced features like the Copy Wizard for data backup experts and simplified backup and recovery wizards for beginners.

The Refresh My Backup feature is unique to the Simple View. This feature updates your backups to incorporate any recent changes you’ve made to your files. Scheduling a backup of only the modified files on your hard drive accomplishes the same goal.

The Backup Wizard in the Simple View has two steps. First you have to choose whether to back up all the files on your hard drive or just the files in the My Documents folder. You can also have the software perform these tasks right away or schedule them for to occur at specified intervals of minutes, hours, days weeks and months.

The Advanced View version of the Backup Wizard provides additional options like data compression, backup verification, open file backup and virus scanning. The virus scanning option is especially helpful because viruses are often the reason you lose data. This option only makes you aware of viruses in your backups, it doesn’t clean, quarantine or delete them. For that you’re going to need a capable anti-virus solution.. As with the other basic Backup Wizard, you first have to decide if you want to back up all the data on your hard drive or limit it to pictures, emails, music or files in the My Documents folder.

After that, you can decide if you want this Windows backup software to perform a full, incremental, differential or snapshot backup. Incremental backups deal with selected files that haven’t been backed up previously or files that have been changed, and they are marked as having been backed up. Differential and snapshot backups do the same thing, except they don’t flag any files. You should always perform a full backup first and then update your first backup with subsequent incremental and differential backups.

NovaBACKUP has great options for recovering your data following an event that results in data loss. These recovery features have options for recovering data and creating bootable media, as well as performing, compressing and verifying backups. With backup compression, you can reduce the size of your backups until they’re more manageable. It’s better to compress your backups and save hard drive space than be forced to delete them because you’re running out. Verifying your backups might add more time to each job, but it’s a surefire way to ensure that your backup has been completed. If you don’t have this option enabled, you may encounter errors when you attempt to recover your data. The data-recovery options in this Windows backup software serve as an overall solution for users who want to safeguard their data against getting lost in a disaster.

Recovering your data with NovaBACKUP is even simpler than backing it up. While the Backup Wizard has two versions, the Restore Wizard is identical in both the Simple and Advanced Views. All you have to do is look inside a backup file and pick the files and folders you want to restore. Next, you have to tell the software whether you want the files you’re restoring to overwrite existing files and indicate where you want them to end up. It’s that simple.

Feature Set:

With this Windows backup software you can create normal, mirror and bidirectional copies of your data with the Copy Wizard. A normal copy is an identical version of a file or folder you select that ends up in the destination you indicate. Mirror copies remove files at the destination that don’t exist at the source to create an identical version of the data in both locations. Bidirectional copies are similar, except they don’t delete files from the source or the destination; instead they make changes in both the source and destination locations to create two identical versions. This Copy Wizard is helpful even though the descriptions of each type of copy are vague. Users who are less familiar with the ins and outs of backing up data would benefit from more detailed explanations.

NovaBACKUP partners with several online storage solutions like Steelgate Technologies to provide shortcuts to their sign-up pages within the application. The advantage of looking for an online storage service through this Windows backup software is the sales they provide. You won’t be able to find these deals on online storage anywhere else. We did wonder, though, why Novastor doesn’t offer its own online storage service.

Ease of Use:

NovaBACKUP is easy-to-use Windows backup software because of its flexible interface; however, you might end up losing functionality if you switch between the Simple and Advanced views. There are features located in the Simple View that aren’t located in the Advanced View and vice versa. For example, you’re only going to find the Refresh My Backup feature in the Simple View, and Copy Wizard is only available in the Advanced View. You’ll also find that features of the same name function differently in the Simple View than they do in the Advanced View. This increases the learning curve for beginning users who want to transition to the features available in the Advanced View. We would like to see Novastor make each set of features function similarly with the only difference being the amount of explanation that’s provided for features in the Simple View.

Help & Support:

Novastor provides a table on their website to explain their complex customer service offerings. Everyone has access to Novastor’s knowledge base, forum, training videos and help documentation. However, you have to pay a one-time fee to unlock email support for one year. With this plan, you will receive a response within one business day. If you want a shorter response time, you have to pay a similar fee for every incident. Novastor has paid services to help you set up this Windows backup software and restore your data as well.

While their user forums, knowledgebase, documentation and training videos provide an ample amount of information, the nuts and bolts of Novastor’s customer service options are only available in their paid support plans. The fact they charge for help and support diminishes the value of their outstanding customer service options.

Summary:

NovaBACKUP not only has stellar options for backing up and restoring your data, it can also ensure viruses don’t make it into your backups and store your backed up data anywhere you desire. The flexible interface in this Windows backup software eases the transition into backing up data for beginners, while still offering features advanced enough for data backup experts. This Windows backup software has tools that can satisfy your data backup and recovery needs.

Pretty flowers for Mother,
To give her on Mother’s Day;
May offers many choices,
Found in earth’s splendid bouquet.

Roses are always lovely,
Tulips are beautiful too;
Violets, Orchids and Lilies,
All kissed by sweet heaven’s dew.

Lilacs long to be chosen,
Showy Irises and more;
They all are simply by-passed,
While browsing the flower store.
