Creating Pdfs

 

Gone are the days of printing out a layout and sending it UPS or FedEx to the client to get an approval. Now, thanks to technology, we create pdfs for fast transit of such materials to be approved. And it all happens within minutes. 

 

Making a pdf of your layout is easier than ever, and this is how you do it:

 

Whether you’ve created your layout in Photoshop, Illustrator or InDesign, almost all programs can create pdfs, even Microsoft Word.

When you’re ready to create your pdf, just follow the same steps you would follow if you were going to print it out on your printer. But instead of pressing the print button, go to the pdf button in the lower left corner and select “Save As Pdf”. You will be asked where to save the pdf, select the location and press “Save”.

 

 

 

 

 

When creating a pdf in Adobe Illustrator, go to “Save As” and save as an “Adobe Illustrator Pdf”. You will then go to a settings window where you will adjust it according to the size and quality of the pdf you require.

 

If you’re creating a pdf from a Adobe Photoshop file, you will save the file as an “Adobe Photoshop PDF”.
