General PDF Creation for Photoshop,
Illustrator and InDesign
Acrobat PDF creation is tightly integrated with
the components in Creative Suite 3, making it
easy to create PDFs as you work. You can access
PDF presets and create PDFs from within Distiller,
Photoshop, Illustrator, and InDesign, using a
similar and familiar process in all four components.
You can also create and share custom presets for
your unique output requirements, varying the
PDF settings as needed.
For a detailed description of PDF presets, see pages 18-19.
