PDF LITE and FREE


The software most commonly used by both business and private individuals to exchange large files on the internet is something called Portable Document Format file, or PDF. Often this format is used to downstream information from a website and most all of us have a PDF reader, which is free, to decipher the incoming information, but upstream requires the PDF software, which is rather expensive. One of several advantages of PDF over, say, an attachment in email, is the retention of formatting and fonts among other pluses. Emailing a scanned document will appear downstream as a crazy thing with margins and fonts unrecognizable. In addition, a document, say an application for employment can be sent back and forth between two people working on the same document and then sent to the destination keeping it’s original format. Now a company, SourceForge.net is offering a PDF lite, and FREE. Follow the easy instructions and save a lota bucks.
