The PDF file format was developed by Adobe to create
a portable document format. This format can be used
to exchange and distribute documents. The advantage
against other formats is that you can be sure that
anyone will view the file exactly as you want also
on other computer systems. The free Adobe Reader is
available for almost all computer systems.
Problems that are caused by fonts that are not
installed on the viewer system are unknown when using
the PDF file format. The PDF files contains all information
to display the file the same way on all systems.
Also PDF files are very small, the content can be stored
compressed. So it is the best solution if you want to
upload and distribute a document to the internet.
