SintraWorks has announced PDFClerk Pro 3.7, an update to their very popular PDF Document Editor for Mac OS X. PDFClerk Pro is a multi-faceted PDF editor with powerful and unique capabilities. It is designed to make standard operations easy and accessible, while allowing ample flexibility and adjustment to more complicated workflows for those with more advanced needs. Print out manuals, reports, essays, articles, web pages and more, in a convenient and economic way. Users may even create books for languages that read from right to left, such as Arabic, Chinese and Hebrew.

PDFClerk Pro allows a large number of manipulations to existing PDF documents, as well as allowing the creation of PDF documents from non PDF material, such as graphics and text, or a mix of the two. The application offers sensible default behaviour to quickly create new PDF documents with both basic and more advanced layouts, and easily print booklets for personal use, distribution to clients, staff or students.

Version 3.7 sports several new enhancements. The annotation sequence on a page can now be reversed with a single command in the contextual menu for pages (useful with forms). The form field tab order can now be adjusted by dragging a field's index number to another form field, to swap sequence order. A new mixed mode allows editing static and dynamic annotations simultaneously.

Feature Highlights include:
* Joining/Splitting and Exploding PDF documents
* Rearranging, Rotating, Adding and Deleting PDF pages
* Imposing multiple pages onto single sheets
* Adding and editing Hyperlinks and other Annotations
* Adding Proofing/Trimming Marks

* Automated Creation of Bookmarks from Table Of Contents
* Automated linking of Index Table entries and cross document page references

PDFClerk Pro was designed from the ground up to be efficient with large source documents, and recalculates impositions blindingly fast. Even documents with thousands of pages are laid out in less than a second.
