use GDI(Graphics Device Interface) drivers as a converting engine.
You can experience richer output with PostScript engine than just plain GDI. The GDI command
interface is limited in preserving the full richness of graphic content to some devices.
PostScript, on the other hand, provides much higher quality output with CMYK colors, transparency
and PostScript font support.

PDF-Pros Batch Processing allows you to convert multiple files to PDF rapidly and automatically.
