Adobe PDF
Adobeฎ Portable Document Format (PDF) is the open de facto standard for electronic document distribution worldwide. Adobe PDF is a universal file format that preserves all of the fonts, formatting, colors, and graphics of any source document, regardless of the application and platform used to create it. PDF files are compact and can be shared, viewed, navigated, and printed exactly as intended by anyone with a free Adobe Acrobatฎ Reader. You can convert any document to Adobe PDF, even scanned paper, using Adobe Acrobat 4.0 software.

Adobe PDF is the ideal format for electronic document distribution because it transcends the problems commonly encountered in electronic file sharing.

Common Problems   Adobe PDF Solutions  
 
• Recipients can't open files because they don't have the applications used to create the documents.   • Anyone, anywhere can open a PDF file. All you need is the free Acrobat Reader.  
 
 
• Formatting, fonts, and graphics are lost due to platform, software, and version incompatibilities.   • PDF files always display exactly as created, regardless of fonts, software, and operating systems.  
 
 
• Documents don't print correctly because of software or printer limitations.   • PDF files always print correctly on any printing device.  
 
Adobe PDF also offers the following benefits:
• PDF files can be published and distributed anywhere: in print, attached to e-mail, on corporate servers, posted on Web sites, or on CD-ROM.
• The free Acrobat Reader is easy to download from our Web site and can be freely distributed by anyone. More than 110 million copies have been downloaded or preloaded onto PCs.
• Compact PDF files are smaller than their source files and download a page at a time for fast display on the Web.
• Using Acrobat 4.0 software, bookmarks, cross-document links, Web links, live forms, security options, sound, and video can be added to PDF files for enhanced online viewing.
What's the bottom line? If you share documents electronically, you should be doing it in Adobe PDF.
