Subject: How to create PDFs for free!

Below is a collection of free software that I have gathered from the internet. This software is meant to help make sure your ads print as you intend them to. PDFs support a wide array of fonts and colors across the Macintosh and Windows platforms.

STEP 1: Install the Correct Software

If you already have Adobe Acrobat, or any other software that creates pdfs, great! Start sending your ads as PDFs. If you do not have one of these programs then please select from the programs below:

Windows Users: Download and install the program cutePDF. This will install a new printer on your computer which allows you to create a PDF by printing from any application. Just change the page set-up, click print, and save the file to disk.

Mac Users: If you have Adobe PageMaker, simply download the plug-in below to export files as PDFs from within PageMaker. If you have Adobe Distiller, download the Adobe PDF print driver below. If you don't have either of these, please send us a postscript file. To do this, download the Adobe Postscript file from below and install it. This will allow you to create a Postscript file by printing from any application. Simply select the porstscript printer and print.

STEP 2: Create your PDF

Once you have the correct software installed, you can create a PDF by printing any application. Make sure the page set-up and margin settings are correct, and then click "print".

STEP 3: Send us your ad

Send us your ads as an email attachment. E-mail your ads to ads@markingdevices.com
