Adobe PDF files (Portable Document Format) are document files which are easy to create thanks to the help of a software for text processing and professional software. The files can be exchanged by email and can be read on all types of interfaces, and as a rule the PDF reader (Acrobat Reader) is already on the computer with no extra installation is necessary. There is no need to have an official software license to create PDFs to be read.
PDF files are used to create expense, quotes, medical reports, train tickets, plans, administrative formulas or simple messages.
You can read the PDF files on your computer or as audio reading of the PDF files.
The access to a PDF can also be protected by a password.
For software development, it is preferable to create PDF files than to print out something. On one hand that saves paper, and on the other it retains a digital trace of the documents. And one doesn’t have to look after the printout.
To integrate the generation of PDF files from software, a third-party library can be used which allows for the text to be written according to different sizes (all meeting different fonts), and make basic graphics (line, circle, polygon) or to insert the images into a PDF document.
If you need to share the files created by your professional application, use the file format Adobe PDF.
