PDF stands for Portable Document Format and is the file type commonly used to transfer documents from computer to computer. If you download a manual from many sites then it would normally be a PDF file. PDF pro is a small software program designed to convert documents, spreadsheets or images into PDF files, and can also be used to read them. The term fp simply stands for Fineprint and works as a printer driver. I use Fineprint to create stationery for letters and documents. I have created a template for use as a letter background with all my personal information on it. I can now simply type a letter and print it via Fineprint instead of sending it directly to me printer, so it will print on the letter template itself.

Hi Shridhar Good discussion, My lot is a great site, here we can share knowledge, learn new things, PDF means Portable Document Format, suppose you paste your picture on a page and you want to send that to me by email, then picture will not come unless you attach it to mail, but you can save that page in PDF and attach it in email, here i can read it and print it if i have adobe, PDF Pro is the software. Fineprint i use for printing Hope this helps
