Adobe 9

The installation of Adobe Acrobat includes a built-in virtual printer that allows you to print Portable Data Files (PDF). This virtual printer is automatically installed for both the Windows and Apple platforms and is labeled “Adobe PDF.” Any documents or spreadsheets located on your hard drive can be converted to PDF by simply printing the document to the virtual printer. PDF documents are handy for storing files locally and emailing because of great compression (small size) and universal appeal.
