PDF is a term commonly associated with computers and stands for "portable document format". PDF is a file format and is used to save and read documents in a format which is independent of the software used to prepare it. For example, when we create any document, say a text document using Microsoft Office, and try to open it in another computer, that does not have Microsoft office (or the same version of it); the document would not appear the same and may suffer from lose of information (font, format, content, etc.). Converting it into pdf solves the problem, because would be fixed in its original place and the document would always appear the same in a pdf reader. Adobe's Acrobat Reader is a free program for reading pdf documents. There are a number of pdf converters and many software also allow the file to be converted directly to a pdf.
Hope this helps.
