ARTS PDF this week is releasing what it calls the first true Adobe Acrobat alternative, Nitro PDF Desktop, a PDF creation and editing product designed and priced for business users.

Priced at $99, Nitro PDF Desktop gives users control over PDF documents, including commenting, form-filling and authoring, digital signatures, text editing, and one-click creation from Microsoft Office. The desktop is designed for use throughout an organization rather than just by senior-level executive users, said company officials.

Users can control other users access rights to documents and set an access password for any PDF. In addition, Nitro PDF Desktop supports the compiling or packaging of files into one bundle.
