PDF documents

[Breezy]

How do I make up the documents so that when I send it to customers they will more than likely be able to open it?
I am wanting to add a link to my site with my "packages" but I can't figure out how to do it.

Would I just type it up in a photoshop document?

Just type in up in MS Word, then convert it into a pdf. Keep in mind pdf's can get large depending on how you have adobe convert the images....

what if I don't have word?
Dh does but he is usually on his computer for his college

I am finding that more people have word than works which is what I have.

if you want to create a pdf, I use a free program called primo pdf that allows you to convert word documents to pdf, it can be found here. http://www.primopdf.com/

thanks John does it only work with word though?

And would I be able to include images?

I use pdf995 - it's a freebie document to pdf creator. Works like a printer driver in windows, so anything you can print from, you can create pdfs

pdf995 will turn a word document or IE page into a pdf file. Any file that has a print option shows pdf995 as an option to print to on my W98SE computer.

I hate PDF's as much as word documents.

This only irks me for people who have a website, with links, then you click on a link and SURPRISE a PDF opens up. Why have HTML on one page, then PDF's for the "Real content". If your sending stuff via E-Mail though, I'd say PDF is as good as word.

I'd also suggest openoffice. I send my resumes out in PDF form.

It could be to save space in e-mails...for both the sender and the recipient. When you send a link to a .pdf on the web, you're sending just that...a link. If you send the actual .pdf file, they can take up a lot of space and time to download.

It should work on any document cause like the others you just go to print a file and select primopdf as the printer and it starts the progam.
