An InPage file is a text file created by Urdu InPage - a page layout software and word processor developed by an Indian IT company.

The text is saved in the Noorinastaliq font, a font that displays Urdu in the Nastaliq script.

Which Tool to Select

Suppose you don't want to install another program. You can follow the InPage method. However, only do this if you already have a PDF viewer installed on your computer. Otherwise, you will not be able to check the document after the conversion.

Choosing the PDFelement method is wiser. It's as easy as the InPage method. However, PDFelement is also a PDF reader and editor. So, you can use it to check or modify the document after the conversion.

Suppose you don't want to deal with a program installation. Or perhaps your computer can't install another program. You can use online tools instead. Online2PDF and HiPDF are two great choices. You can use these web services to process PDF files for free.

The two online tools have common caveats. They don't accept INP as input. Furthermore, you can't use them if you don't have internet access. There's no problem with using Online2PDF. But HiPDF is the better choice since it also offers PDF editing tools.

That said, here's our ranking:

1. PDFelement- It lets you convert the file and then edit it.
2. HiPDF- The same as PDFelement but online.
3. Online2PDF- It lets you do basic editing afterward.
4. InPage- You won't need to install another tool or use an online service. However, you can't use InPage to edit or view the output PDF.
