General panel options
Use this panel to select a version of Acrobat for file compatibility and other file and device settings. (The panel
appearance differs in Windows and Mac OS.)
Compatibility
Sets the compatibility level of the PDF. Use the most recent version (in this case, version 1.7) to
include all the latest features and functionality. If you’re creating PDFs that will be distributed widely, choose an
earlier level, to ensure that all users can view and print the document.
