| 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.
