Definition

PDF (Portable Document Format) is a file format developed by Adobe that allows documents to be presented in a manner independent of application software, hardware, and operating systems. It encapsulates a complete description of a fixed-layout flat document, including the text, fonts, graphics, and other information needed to display it. PDFs are widely used for sharing documents due to their consistent appearance across different devices and platforms.
