Adobe PDF documents

The Adobe Portable Document Format (PDF) was developed by the Adobe company to provide a universal file format that preserves the fonts, formatting and graphics of a source document, regardless of what platform or application was used to create it. PDF files can be shared, viewed and printed by anyone with a free Adobe Acrobat Reader. Many Finale users create PDFs to publish on the Web, email to a friend, to give to publishers for further formatting, or to give to a print shop for printing. Finale 2012 offers the ability to easily save pages or excerpts of your score as PDF documents.

Note. For information regarding advanced PDF features, please visit Adobe’s website at www.adobe.com.
