Short Note on PDF Evolution And PDF Compatibility

PDF Evolution – PDF is created by Adobe Systems in 1993. A file format which is best in its features like security, accessibility, used on multiple operating systems and many more.

Now comes the point that is it possible to process the old pdf files with our new products? Due to this point the pdf compatibility can be divided into three categories:-
1. Backward-compatibility – In this, you will find that the older pdf files can be processed by our new products.
2. Forward-compatibility – The ability by which older products processed our newer pdf files.
3. Feature-compatibility – The ability by which old products purposely lack support for that pdf files which contain those features.

We say that pdf files are compatible. Had you ever think about this why it is so?
This is because pdf is the only file format which is compatible in nature. You will find several other file formats like word, excel, post script and many more but no one can beat pdf format. The reason behind this is its special features which distinguish it from other file formats. People try to convert pdf to word with pdf tools but the reason for the conversion is that pdf is not editable and to implement editing on this they convert from pdf to word. Atlast, they convert back from word to pdf to get best results in the Business.

This is the success story of PDF. I learned lots of things here if you also then send me your feedbacks.
