Use of PDF or Portable Document Format:

• Share files that will look the same (layout, fonts) as on multiple systems
• Share files that can be protected from unauthorized viewing, printing, copying, or editing
• Publish electronic documents, ebooks, etc.
• Print files to many different types of printers, and all look essentially the same
• Create files with annotations, hyperlinks, and bookmarks that can be shared via email and on the Web

• Create files that are more efficient than PostScript or native file formats typically used in commercial printing
