PDF File

What is a PDF File?

A PDF file originally called a portable document format is a file format used to represent documents independently through application software, hardware and operating systems. Each PDF file captures a complete description of a fixed layout flat document including the text, font, graphics and other information needed to display it. In 1991, John Warnock the co-founder of Adobe Systems outlined a system called “Camelot” which then developed into PDF.
PDF files are useful for documents such as magazine articles, product brochures, or flyers in which you want to preserve the original graphic appearance online. A PDF file contains one or more page images, each of which you can zoom in on or out from. You can page forward and backward.
