We can transfer basic Portable Document Format (PDF)
or PostScript files into user-friendly electronic documents with more
interactive functionality. Viewed using Acrobat Reader, these documents
can be distributed using Internet, Intranet or CD-ROM which reduces the
demand on the network.
What is PDF?
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 the fonts, formatting,
graphics, and colour of any source document, regardless of the application
and platform used to create it. Adobe PDF files are compact and can be
shared, viewed, navigated, and printed exactly as intended by anyone with
free Adobe Acrobat Reader software. You can convert any document
to Adobe PDF using Adobe
Acrobat 6.0 software.
Adobe PDF is the emerging workflow standard in the $400
billion publishing industry. It also plays a key role in financial services,
regulated industries, and government, with more than 155 agencies worldwide
sharing Adobe PDF files.
Tagged Adobe PDF
Adobe Acrobat 6.0 software introduces tagged Adobe PDF,
an enhancement to the PDF specification that allows PDF files to contain
logical document structure. Logical structure refers to the organisation
of a document, such as the title page, chapters, sections, and subsections.
Tagged Adobe PDF documents can be re-flowed to fit small-screen devices
and offer better support for repurposing content. They also are more accessible
to the visually impaired.
Adobe PDF also offers the following benefits:
Adobe 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.
Free Acrobat Reader software is easy to download from the Adobe
Web site. More than 300 million copies have been distributed worldwide.
Compact Adobe PDF files are smaller than their source files,
can be downloaded a page at a time for fast display on the Web, and don't
slow down your network.
Using Acrobat 5.0 software, you can easily add bookmarks, set
security options, and generate miniature Adobe PDF previews. Acrobat 6.0
also lets you comment on and approve Adobe PDF documents with digital
signatures, all within a Web browser.
What's the bottom line? If you share documents electronically, you should
be doing it in Adobe PDF.
