.PDF ファイル拡張子

A PDF file is a multi-page document that opens on almost all platforms. Such files usually contain text, images, shapes, annotations, diagrams, and other data. In addition, they preserve fonts and text formatting. In this way, the electronic version of the documents will look the same as on paper.

You can use these files to save your work documents that you would need to print later. It is also convenient for downloading documents from the Internet and sending them to work colleagues.

More information

To create a PDF file, you can use many programs for editing images, word processors, or special applications specifically for PDF. Or make the process even more accessible and create a PDF from your documents using the Print dialog in Windows and macOS. It will also make it easier for you to print documents outside your home.

You can open a PDF file without much difficulty. For this, your device may already have a program installed. However, if that doesn't work, you can view this type of file in Adobe Acrobat Reader, Microsoft Word, Apple Preview, and most web browsers. You can also view PDFs on smartphones using Adobe Reader, Apple Books, Google Play Books, and Chrome or Safari web browsers.
