PDF Documents
Adobe® Portable Document Format (PDF) is a standard for electronic document distribution worldwide. PDF files can be published and distributed anywhere: in print, attached to e-mail, posted on Web sites, or on CD-ROM.

Key Features
• Compact PDF files are smaller than their source files and preserve all of the fonts, formatting, colors, and graphics of any source document.

• PDF files display exactly as created, regardless of fonts, software, and operating systems.

• PDF files will print correctly on any printing device.

• Anyone, anywhere can open a PDF file regardless of the application and the platform used to create it. All one needs is the free Acrobat Reader application available from www.adobe.com.

Opening PDF Documents
•To open a PDF file from the desktop, disk or CD, double click the file icon or select the icon and choose Open from the File menu.

• To open a linked PDF document in the web browser (Internet Explorer or Netscape Navigator), simply click the link. The PDF document will be downloaded to your computer and then open for viewing.

Viewing a PDF Document
From the View menu, one may choose to view the document as a single page, continuous pages, or continuous facing pages. One may also view just the page, bookmarks and the page, or (page) thumbnails and the current page number. A Full Screen selection also allows one to view the page without menus and toolbars.

Printing a PDF Document
To print a PDF document, select Page Setup from the File Menu and select the desired print options. Acrobat Reader offers a Shrink to Fit print option. Shrink to Fit shrinks and, if necessary, rotates oversized pages to fit on the paper size currently loaded in the printer. Then select Print form the File menu.
