Good day to all, my dear friends. How are you doing? Hope that's great. I am now writing one little book. So here it will be in the familiar PDF format. We all know that by default a file in this format cannot be edited. Then the question is brewing: how to create a pdf file if it is not created just like that.
It's actually easier than you might think. Therefore, I will show you several ways how to do this in a Word, using a third-party program and without programs at all. Go!
Microsoft Word
The easiest and fastest way, in my opinion, is the Word text editor known to all of us, which is part of Microsoft Office and is an integral part of it.
Does everyone have a Word? I think that everyone, or almost everyone. I just know people who work in Open Office and fundamentally do not use products from the Bill Gates corporation. Or they install a free office suite due to the lack of a license.
But if it's still worth it, then write the entire document in it, edit, insert pictures, links, etc. And when your final version is ready, just click "File" - "Save As" and select the folder in which you want to save your future pdf file.
Now, during saving, select the "PDF" file type. Voila. That's all. It didn't hurt at all.)
There is, however, a significant disadvantage. The ability to save from Word to PDF has appeared only since Office 2010. In earlier versions, this feature is not yet available.
PDF Creator
Let's consider another interesting option, namely a special program for creating the files we need, which is simply called PDF creator. You can download it here... And immediately install it in the usual way, just put it first "Expert settings", and then uncheck all unnecessary add-ons.
You can install the PDF-Architect application in the same installer, but I do not recommend it. Its free version is not particularly useful. It's better if you don't have it. And the paid version with advanced features costs $ 30. But I wouldn't take it.
After installation, you don't even need to go into the program itself. It is added to the context menu. That is, if you have any document from which you want to make a PDF (be it an office document of any version, a simple text document, a Photoshop file, or even an ordinary picture), you just need to right-click on it and select "Convert with PDF-creator".
Now you will see a window with the program, where you will need to select the name of the future file. After that, click "Save" and you will open an explorer, where you will have to select a location to save the file.
Also, if you do not want to use the context menu, but you can go to any document and print it, i.e. click "File" - "Print" (usually like this). Only in printers, you need to choose the one called "PDF Creator". Well, then the same window will open, which I talked about a little higher.
Converting
And of course, we must not forget about such a method as conversion. Moreover, you can convert to PDF from any type of document or picture without installing third-party programs. To do this, you can use various online services, for example by this... I will not describe this process, since I described how to work with one of the online converters in. So read it. The principle is the same.
Well, I think that these methods are quite enough. Now you can make e-books, manuals, training manuals, etc. This format is easier to read and is a great container for images. I am speaking correctly. Which method do you prefer? Write in the comments.
Well, this is where I end my lesson. I hope you like it, so be sure to subscribe to my blog updates to always be aware of everything new and interesting. Good luck to you. Bye Bye!
Best regards, Dmitry Kostin.
