Why the Adobe Acrobat Portable Document Format?

TheAdobe Acrobat Portable Document Format (PDF) allows us to offer an easyto read format and fine detail of images with a very small file sizefor faster downloading. The PDF format allows you many options such aszoom in/out, copy/paste of text or images, and lots more. It also letsus produce forms that you can print, that look exactly like theoriginal, because Acrobat supplies the fonts that your PC may not have.

Before you go forward withsaving the file, write down two things on a piece of paper: (1) the name ofthe file (something like "AdbeRdr70_DLM_enu_full.exe") and (2) thefolder or area to which the file is being saved. If you don't do this, you maynot be able to find your file and you'll have to start over again.
