What is pdf?
|
- PDF is a graphically oriented file format designed for electronic
interchange; it was developed by Adobe Systems Inc. for use with
its Acrobat software.
- With a PDF file, you can display or print any page in a publication
in a form virtually identical to the page that appeared in the
publication (including richly formatted text, graphics, and colors).
- The PDF format is derived from PostScript, the page description
language developed by Adobe, but a PDF file is much smaller than
a corresponding PostScript file, so it is more suitable for electronic
delivery.
