PDF to TCR converter

Portable Document Format (PDF) is a type of document created by Adobe back in 1990s. The purpose of this file format was to introduce a standard for representation of documents and other reference material in a format that is independent of application software, hardware as well as Operating System. PDF files can be opened in Adobe Acrobat Reader/Writer as well in most modern browsers like Chrome, Safari, Firefox via extensions/plug-ins.

The .tcr file type was developed by Psion for use with their Series 3 palmtop devices developed during the 1990s. The format was solely intended for use on the device, however there are certain eBook readers that will display .tcr files. This file format is however obsolete following the discontinuation of palmtop devices. TCR is based on the ZVR file format. TCR provides relatively good compression ratios of approximately 50% which are better than PalmDOC, the main rival to the TCR format at the time of release.
