How to Publish Microsoft Docs. into PDF

To start with, let me quickly explain what PDF is in my tiny little language anyone can easily understand. PDF is an application format used, whereby document converted into its form are easy to access. What am I trying to say? I’m not only trying to say it, but I am factually saying that when Microsoft docs. Are developed and converted into PDF format, they are easily accessed.

Why are they easily accessed? The Microsoft Company or body, as you may wish to call them, upgrade their Windows every time. In light of this, if a document was developed using a higher version of Windows, it is impossible to open the doc. with a lower Windows version.

So what is the solution? Very simple. Convert the document into PDF format. How? Whether the doc. is MS Word, Excel, PowerPoint or CorelDraw, it can be converted into PDF.

The first thing to be sure of is that you have downloaded the Acrobat reader into your computer system. This is to enable you carry out the conversion successfully.

For MS Word, Excel, PowerPoint docs., after developing and saving the doc., click on “File” on your document Menu, further click on “Export” and lastly click on “Create PDF/XPS”, and your PDF format is done. For CorelDraw doc., after developing and saving the document, click on “File”, “Publish to PDF” and that is it. You may wish to rename the document after the conversion. That is about the only thing that can be changed after the conversion.

These are about the major advantages of converting a document into the PDF format: It preserves layouts, formatting, fonts and images; content can’t be easily changed; free viewers are available on the web. For example, some people have a soft copy of their official signatures which they always paste at the end of their letters. When such document is converted into PDF, the signature cannot be copied.
