How create a PDF file

How create a PDF file


First you will need the full Acrobat software (not simply the Acrobat Reader).
(Acrobat is available at a substantially reduced price for educational establishments.)

Acrobat provides three methods for creating PDF files:

  • PDF Writer, the quickest and easiest method for creating PDF files
  • Acrobat Distiller which uses a more intensive process to optimise compression and functionality
  • Acrobat Capture to convert scanned paper documents into PDF pages

The exact method of creating a PDF file depends on the version of Acrobat which you have installed. You may have one or more of the following options:

  • An icon on your wordprocessor toolbar pdf icon. If you click on this a PDF file of your Word document will automatically be created. You will be prompted for filename.
  • A Print to PDF option on the File Menu. This will automatically create a PDF as above.
  • PDF Writer and/or PDF Distiller listed in the Print dialogue box.
