PDF Files- Mike Grossman Consulting - Newsletter, May 2019

Published: Thu, 05/23/19

Hello and welcome to another edition of the newsletter. This edition I'll discuss the ever-present PDF file format.

The Adobe software company created the PDF file format 25 years ago and now it's a standard document format like Microsoft's Office document file formats (i.e. .doc files). This means that if you send someone a PDF document they'll most likely be able to view it easily.

Working With PDF Files

There are many free tools to view PDF files, to create PDF files and convert PDF files to .doc files. But without paying for software, it’s more complicated to do tasks within a PDF file such as editing, annotating, highlighting or adding notes.

The two solutions below are the best products available that I could find. Both require monthly subscriptions and both work for Mac and PC computers.

Adobe Acrobat: The King

From the company that created the file format, the Adobe Acrobat software gives you full control of working with PDF files. Acrobat allows you to create PDFs, edit PDFs, share and sign. Acrobat Pro (not Adobe Standard) also includes lots of other features including editing on mobile devices. All of this functionality comes with a price tag of $14.99 /mo (and requires an annual commitment).
