Using our PDF Bureau

Adobe PDF logoWe can transfer basic Portable Document Format (PDF) or PostScript files into user-friendly electronic documents with more interactive functionality. Viewed using Acrobat Reader, these documents can be distributed using Internet, Intranet or CD-ROM which reduces the demand on the network.

What is PDF?

Adobe Portable Document Format (PDF) is the open de facto standard for electronic document distribution worldwide. Adobe PDF is a universal file format that preserves all the fonts, formatting, graphics, and colour of any source document, regardless of the application and platform used to create it. Adobe PDF files are compact and can be shared, viewed, navigated, and printed exactly as intended by anyone with free Adobe Acrobat Reader software. You can convert any document to Adobe PDF using Adobe Acrobat 6.0 software.

Adobe PDF is the emerging workflow standard in the $400 billion publishing industry. It also plays a key role in financial services, regulated industries, and government, with more than 155 agencies worldwide sharing Adobe PDF files.

Tagged Adobe PDF

Adobe Acrobat 5.0 software introduces tagged Adobe PDF, an enhancement to the PDF specification that allows PDF files to contain logical document structure. Logical structure refers to the organisation of a document, such as the title page, chapters, sections, and subsections. Tagged Adobe PDF documents can be reflowed to fit small-screen devices and offer better support for repurposing content. They also are more accessible to the visually impaired.

Adobe PDF also offers the following benefits:

  • Adobe PDF files can be published and distributed anywhere: in print, attached to e-mail, on corporate servers, posted on Web sites, or on CD-ROM.
  • Free Acrobat Reader software is easy to download from the Adobe Web site. More than 300 million copies have been distributed worldwide.
  • Compact Adobe PDF files are smaller than their source files, can be downloaded a page at a time for fast display on the Web, and don't slow down your network.
  • Using Acrobat 5.0 software, you can easily add bookmarks, set security options, and generate miniature Adobe PDF previews. Acrobat 5.0 also lets you comment on and approve Adobe PDF documents with digital signatures, all within a Web browser.

What's the bottom line? If you share documents electronically, you should be doing it in Adobe PDF.
