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