dotTech Advice
For quite a few years here at dotTech, we’ve been giving you the latest freebies, including several on Expert PDF Pro. As such, it’s really gotten ingrained in our site, and we’ve even offered tips on getting rid of some of its annoyances over the years. It’s definitely a nice program, and in version seven Avanquest gave it a nice overhaul, with a Windows 7 ribbon interface and all. (That may or may not be a pro.) It’s definitely worth snagging, if not for now, for future use, especially if you use a lot of PDFs.

@RobCr:
I just googled and found:
http://computelogy.com/2012/12/free-expert-pdf-8-business-edition/
I too Googled and found that page, HOWEVER I was nervous that it may have not been the correct page, and may be dangerous.
I think it is now too late, as it just opens a ‘home’ page.
I don’t mean to look a gift horse in the mouth, but there are two questions -
1) Is it the same source that Jayesstee was intending ? ? ?
2) Why didn’t Jayesstee provide a link ? ? ?
@RobCr:
I limited my google search to the last week, and when I saw a lot of familiar sites referenced, I figured it was a genuine giveaway….I dled and installed and nothing bad has happened, and the app works fine. The page I gave just takes you to Avanquest anyway, with their usual registration procedure.
I just tried my link again. It opens to an article titled “Get Free Expert PDF 8 Professional Edition [Ultimate & Business Edition] – Don’t Miss It…”
Keep scrolling way down–there’s a big blank space before you get to the screen caps of the reg/dl procedure.
@Janetb:
I got to Computelogy page OK
It is their link half way down that then goes to Avanguest home page, NOT TO the form to fill in to request the reg .
Here is their link -
.
Open the following webpage into your browser and fill the form, which we have already practiced on number of times, as shown in the photo below.

Rob
PS Thanks for your help
I am annoyed at Jayesstee’s vague ‘heads up’ and subsequent silence.
@RobCr and Janetb:
Sorry RobCr but the (vague) reference was the one I used. I quoted it because when I used it, it gave instructions on how to fill in the German language form plus a link to it. I didn’t give further instructions on how to follow the linked page because I thought dotTechies could read and I was just finishing off for the day. That’s the reason for my susequent ‘silence’, time differences and all that!
Janetb. Hope it really does all you want, I figured I owed you after accusing you of shouting last time. PS I got the blank part of the page until I temporarily disabled ‘NoScript’.
@jayesstee:
If you are saying that the link to get to the reg form is still valid.
Let us say for the moment that ‘I can’t read’ without me taking offense. Can you check the link and spell it out better for those of us ‘that cannot read’
Hey all, lets play nice. You all are respected members of dotTech community. So please be respectful.
You’ll be happy to know that everyone’s right…:-)…
When I went to the link, it went to the Avanq. reg page. I was able to reg and the reg code was sent to myemail. I then went back to the Computology page and downloaded from the link there:
ftp://ftp2.avanquest.com/evaluation/ExpertPDF/8/ExpertPDF_V8_TRIAL_ENG.exe
So I guess the offer is over…:-(… Why don’t you download from the above link. If it’s alright with Ashraf, I’ll either post the code or send it to you offline.
@jayesstee:
How did you do this: “until I temporarily disabled ‘NoScript’ “? I have IE.
@Janetb: I have no issue with code posting as long as it is for troubleshooting purposes

This is for the download of the 8 Pro trial from the link in my #84 comment. Good luck!
@Janetb and RobCr:
Sorry, please accept my profuse appologies. This is what I did and thought I did:
1. I found the Expert PDF offer at:
http://computelogy.com/2012/12/free-expert-pdf-8-business-edition/
2. I posted my find at:
http://dottech.org/forums/freebies/get-free-expert-pdf-8-professional-edition-ultimate-business-edition-dont-miss-it/
I thought I included the link in #1 above, but it sure isn’t there now.
The only evidence I can offer in my defence, is that it is still in my clipboard manager. That only proves my intention, not that I actually did put it in.
3. I briefly came on-line earlier today, saw the posts and fired off my reply without checking. Again apologies.
4. The Computelogy page seems to be active, however I can confirm that the code given by Janetb will serve very well for “testing”.
5. Janetb. I use FF, with the NoScript extension for its protection against javascript etc. I too got empty spaces on the Computelogy page, but temporarily disabling NoScript allowed the content to be seen. Have you got similar protection built in, or added to IE?
Sorry for the confusion, I was certain that I included the link in #1 above, but if I didn’t please put down to senility. Any future posts, will be doubly checked.
