A PDF (Portable Document File) is created using Adobe Distiller software. The advantage of a PDF file is it can be read on a variety of computer platforms (Windows and Apple, for example), is compact in size and can be easily attached to an email for distribution that almost any recipient can read. The only requirement is the computer must be loaded with Adobe Reader software, which the company makes available as a free download. Blank pages can be removed quickly from a PDF document using Adobe Acrobat software.
Step 1
Open Adobe Acrobat on the computer by clicking the Start button on the lower left-hand corner, choosing All Programs and clicking on Adobe Acrobat.
