Many websites use Portable Document Format (PDF) files to make documents available online. - The reason for this is that PDF files are smaller and more manageable than word processing files, etc. All the recipient needs to view these files is Adobe reader, which is usually installed on their PC, and if it isn't, is freely available from http://www.adobe.com/products/acrobat/readstep2.html Adobe Reader does not however, create PDF files. To do this, you need a different piece of software. We recommend the Open Source Program, PDF Creator, available free from:http://sourceforge.net/projects/pdfcreator/ or you can download version 0.9.5 from here How to create PDF files: When you have downloaded and istalled the above program, it will be found in the same place that your printer(s) are found. You treat it just as if it was another printer installed on your computer. - You "print" to it in the same way as you would print a document, web page, picture, or whatever else you want to print. The difference is when you use PDF creator as your printer, instead of printing, a dialogue box will open, giving you the options to save the print output as a pdf file on your PC, or to include it as an attachment in an email you wish to send. Thats it!! Easy isnt it!
