										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>PC Audit is a USB-based tool that audits any PC in around 10 seconds and produces a clean, professional, single PDF you can save, print, or email straight to a customer. Processor, memory with full slot detail, storage, software, serial numbers and recent system-log errors — all in one A4 report, from one USB stick and one licence that covers both Windows and Linux. <a href="https://www.cc-computers.com/pc-audit/">Pc Audit</a> <a href="https://store.cc-computers.com/">Buy from the online shop</a></p>
<p><a href="https://www.cc-computers.com/?p=80693">Pc Audit</a> <a href="https://www.cc-computers.com/?p=80687">Pc Audit</a> <a href="https://www.cc-computers.com/?p=80592">Pc Audit</a> <a href="https://www.cc-computers.com/?p=80590">Pc Audit</a> <a href="https://www.cc-computers.com/?p=80588">Pc Audit</a></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>It is built for repair shops, onsite engineers, and corporate IT teams who need a reliable spec report on a machine they are looking at — without installing anything on that machine and without leaving anything behind.</p>
<h2>What the report contains</h2>
<p>A PCAudit report is a single A4 PDF that lists everything worth knowing about a machine in one place. The processor — model, physical and logical cores, clock speed and load. Memory — total, used and available, plus a per-slot table showing slot, manufacturer, DDR type, speed, capacity and part number, so you can quote an upgrade precisely. The motherboard and BIOS — make, model, revision, BIOS vendor, version and date. Graphics — GPU name, VRAM and driver version. Storage and partitions — physical drives with model, serial, interface and size, and logical partitions with letter, type, size and free space. Installed software with versions. And recent entries from the system log, flagged where they suggest a problem worth investigating.</p>
<p>That is a complete picture of a machine, in one printable PDF.</p>
<h2>How it works</h2>
<p>PC Audit runs entirely from the USB stick. Plug it in and run the matching launcher — Run-Windows.bat on Windows, or ./Run-Linux.sh on Linux. A bundled Python runtime is included, so it works even on a machine with no Python installed. Nothing is installed on the PC you audit, and nothing is left behind when you pull the stick out.</p>
<p>The report can be saved as a PDF and opened in your usual email program to attach, or sent directly through the built-in SMTP option — enter your server details once, use the Test button to confirm they work, and the PDF is attached and sent automatically.</p>
<h2>Who it is for</h2>
<p>Repair shops and service desks keep it on the bench and put a printed spec report in the customer’s hand with the repair note. Specs, serials and BIOS details to hand. Quote RAM and SSD upgrades with certainty. Catch failing drives and errors from the system log. On-site and field engineers arrive with one USB stick and leave with a full report — nothing installed on the customer’s machine, nothing left behind. The same drive runs on Windows or Linux. The PDF can be handed over on site or emailed before you leave. Corporate IT and MSPs audit workstation after workstation on one licence, building a hardware, software and firmware picture across the estate — serials, specs and installed software for asset records, each report printed, filed, or attached to a ticket.</p>
<h2>One licence, two platforms</h2>
<p>PC Audit is a product of CritchCorp Computers Ltd. One USB licence covers the same stick on a Windows PC and a Linux PC. The report is a clean A4 PDF you can save, print, or email. Nothing is installed on the machine you audit. The licence is a one-time purchase and includes any updates to your version of the software.</p>

					<description><![CDATA[For the everyday PDF jobs — merge, split, rotate, compress — PDF Pilot does them in one window, offline, for a one-time licence. Here is why that matters for small offices and home users who do not need an Adobe subscription.]]></description>
										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Small offices and home users do not usually need a full PDF editing suite. What they need is the four or five PDF jobs that come up regularly — combining documents before sending them, pulling specific pages out of a large file, straightening a scan, and shrinking a file so it emails. Those jobs should be simple, fast, and not require handing your documents to a third-party server or paying a monthly subscription for tools you only use a few times a month. <a href="https://www.cc-computers.com/pdf-pilot/">Pdf Pilot</a> <a href="https://store.cc-computers.com/">Buy from the online shop</a></p>
<p><a href="https://www.cc-computers.com/?p=80691">Pdf Pilot</a> <a href="https://www.cc-computers.com/?p=80685">Pdf Pilot</a> <a href="https://www.cc-computers.com/?p=80586">Pdf Pilot</a> <a href="https://www.cc-computers.com/?p=80584">Pdf Pilot</a> <a href="https://www.cc-computers.com/?p=80582">Pdf Pilot</a></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>PDF Pilot is built around exactly that set of jobs. Four tools in one window — merge, split, rotate, compress — each doing one thing well, with no account to create, no data uploaded anywhere, and a one-time licence instead of a recurring fee.</p>
<h2>The everyday PDF jobs, listed</h2>
<p>Merge combines several PDFs into one document in the order you choose. That is the job that comes up when you have a contract in one file, an invoice in another, and you need to send them together. Split breaks a large document into single pages or extracts only the pages you specify — useful when you have a 50-page PDF and only need three of those pages. Rotate turns every page 90, 180 or 270 degrees, which is exactly what you need after a scan comes out sideways. Compress shrinks a PDF and shows you immediately how much smaller it got, so you can decide whether it will fit in an email before you try to send it.</p>
<p>That covers the bulk of everyday PDF work for most people. If your need is those four jobs, PDF Pilot does them in one place.</p>
<h2>Why offline matters for small offices</h2>
<p>A small office or home user often handles documents that are not public — contracts, quotes, customer details, financial records. An online PDF converter takes the file you upload and processes it on someone else’s server. You cannot see where it goes, and you cannot un-upload it. PDF Pilot does every job on your own machine, with no internet connection required and no third-party server involved. That is not a luxury for sensitive documents — it is a reasonable default for any document you would rather not hand to a server you do not control.</p>
<h2>One licence, no subscription</h2>
<p>Adobe and similar subscription services charge monthly and keep charging monthly. PDF Pilot is a one-time purchase. There is no recurring fee, no account to maintain, and no forced upgrade cycle. Updates are offered automatically — you install them or ignore them. You can purchase the Windows version or the Linux version.</p>
<p>The free 30-day trial is fully functional. There is no feature gating, no watermark, and no account to create before you download. Run a real PDF through the trial and see whether the four jobs it does are the ones you actually need.</p>
<h2>What PDF Pilot is not</h2>
<p>PDF Pilot is not a full PDF editor. It does not let you rewrite text inside a PDF, add annotations, or fill forms. It does the four jobs it does — merge, split, rotate, compress — and does them well, offline, in one window. If your need is those four jobs, that is the tool. If you need to edit the contents of a PDF, that is a different tool for a different job.</p>
<p>PDF Pilot is a product of CritchCorp Computers Ltd. It runs on Windows or Linux. The 30-day free trial is fully functional — continued use after the trial requires a licence. Licence is purchased per OS and per user.</p>
