Our Acrobat PDF Settings.


Adobe PDF is the ideal electronic package to contain everything from spreadsheets, presentations, brochures, photographs, rich graphics, and much more.

Adobe PDF files preserve the look and integrity of your original documents, and you can share them with anyone electronically, regardless of hardware and software platforms.

When sending production files to us, you should always embed your fonts and provide a PDF File which is as close to the real printed output requirement. Superfine can help you with this by providing you with the required PDF settings and printer drivers which are needed to make your document come to life faster.
