<br/><br/> This revised and expanded book from Adobe Systems describes the Portable Document Format (PDF), the native file format of the adobe family of products. These products enable users to exchange and view electronic documents easily and reliably, independently of the environment in which they were created, PDF builds on the PostScript page description language, layering a document structure and interactive navigation features on PostScript's underlying imaging model. Aided by the explosive growth of the internet, and with well over 100 million copies of the Acrobat Reader application distributed around the world, PDF has become the defacto standard for electronic document exchange. - Back cover
