Looking for a solution to managing your growing collection of e-zines and pdf tutorials. Give Yep a Try!
I've been using Yep for the last couple of weeks. Yep is a great tool for creatives who have allot of E-zines and pdf Tutorials. It automatically tags your imported files based on keywords in the pdf files them selves which is a great time saver. I can't imagine anything more time consuming then tagging files.
Give it a try. I've been using the demo version with no problems.* The demo version of Yep only allows 50 imports.

When using the transform tool you can change the units scaled by from percentages to any number of other units of measurement. (px, cm, mm, ...)
Just change the unit prefix in the transform information bar to the unit you would like to scale by.
