What is meant by the PDF format?

PDF (Portable Document Format) was created by Adobe in the early 1990s as a platform-independent standard for sharing documents. It became available, officially, in 1993 and quickly became nearly ubiquitous as a popular digital document format since layout and content (text, images, charts, etc.) remains as originally created, regardless of what hardware or software is used to view it.

Who is PDF for?

This format is ideal for students, educators, writers, managers, designers, or anyone needing to share documents like resumes, reports, books, articles, or forms in a consistent and non-editable format. It is also commonly used in archiving and office systems due to its reliability and universal compatibility.
