About Converting PML to PDF
PML is the markup used by Palm Digital Media and the eReader application (originally Peanut Press). It is plain text with backslash escape codes for structure and emphasis, so unlike its binary contemporaries a PML file can be read in any text editor. When you need to move away from PML, the usual reason is simple: obsolete.
Converting your PML e-book to PDF solves that. PDF is the universal fixed-layout document format. It freezes fonts, images and layout so a file looks identical on every device, which is why it is the standard for contracts, invoices and reports. In practice you gain identical appearance on every device and universally supported. PrivConvert runs the whole PML-to-PDF conversion in server memory and deletes your file the instant the PDF is ready — nothing is stored, logged or reused.
When this conversion helps
- You need identical appearance on every device
- You need universally supported
- You need supports encryption, signatures and forms
- Escaping a proprietary PML file for the open PDF standard
- Sharing a PML e-book with someone whose software expects PDF
Tips for best results
- Files up to 250 MB are supported, and you can batch-convert several PML files at once; each is processed privately and deleted immediately.
