How to Create PDF Documents
A PDF File can be created using many different methods, some applications use a built-in PDF converter, and some have only the ability to print out a postscript file through the print menu. The instructions included on this page assume you are using Adobe Acrobat Professional or Adobe Distiller. Please use these instructions as guide to help you determine what setting to choose in your application.
If you own a copy of Adobe Acrobat Professional (this is not the same as Adobe Acrobat Reader), you can create a PDF from ANY application that supports printing. To create a PDF, simply choose "Adobe PDF" as your printer.
If you own Adobe Distiller, you can create a PDF file from any PostScript (*.ps) file. PostScript files can be created from nearly any program through the Print menu, by selecting the Print to File option.
Regardless of the method you choose to use in creating the PDF, a set of similar options will be available.
