soft outlook to send itself as an attached adobe pdf file it was activated with adobe acrobat but not with acrobat reader 74 over the years several vulnerabilities have been discovered in various versions of adobe reader 75 which prompted the company to issue security fixes vulnerabilities have been discovered in other pdf readers as well one aggravating factor is that a pdf reader can be configured to start automatically if a web page has an embedded pdf file providing a vector for attack if a malicious web page contains an infected pdf file that takes advantage of a vulnerability in the pdf reader the system may be compromised even if the browser is secure some of these vulnerabilities are a result of badly written pdf readers mishandling javascript embedded in the pdf file disabling javascript execution in the pdf reader can help mitigate such future exploits although it does not protect against exploits in other parts of the pdf viewing software some security experts say that javascript is not essential for a pdf reader and that the security benefit that comes from disabling javascript outweighs any compatibility issues caused 76 one way of avoiding pdf file exploits is to have a local or web service convert files to another format before viewing on march 30 2010 security researcher didier stevens reported an adobe reader and foxit reader exploit that runs a malicious executable if the user allows it to launch when asked 77 zip bomb edit see also zip bomb pdf streams can have nested filters which allows one to craft a 5 kilobyte file that unpacks to 1 petabyte in ram this can be used to cause a denial of service with implementations that do not guard against this like it was the case with pypdf s cve 2025 55197 78 79 software edit for a more comprehensive list see list of pdf software viewers and editors edit many pdf viewers are provided free of charge from a variety of sources programs to manipulate and edit pdf files are available usually for purchase additionally most modern web browsers including chrome firefox and safari include pdf viewing capabilities replacing browser plugins that were previously created for such purposes 80 there are many software options for creating pdfs including the pdf printing capabilities built into macos ios 81 and most linux distributions much document processing software including libreoffice microsoft office 2007 if updated to sp2 and later 82 wordperfect 9 and scribus can export documents in pdf there are many pdf print drivers for microsoft windows the pdftex typesetting system the docbook pdf tools applications developed around ghostscript and adobe acrobat itself as well as adobe indesign adobe framemaker adobe illustrator adobe photoshop that allow a pdf printer to be set up which when selected sends output to a pdf file instead of a physical printer google s online office suite google docs allows uploading and saving to pdf some web apps offer free pdf editing and annotation tools the free software foundation was developing a free high quality and fully functional set of libraries and programs that implement the pdf file format and associated technologies to the iso 32000 standard as one of its high priority projects 83 84 in 2011 however the gnu pdf project was removed from the list of high priority projects due to the maturation of the poppler library 85 which has enjoyed wider use in applications such as evince with the gnome desktop environment poppler is based on the xpdf 86 87 code base there are also commercial development libraries available as listed in list of pdf software the apache pdfbox project of the apache software foundation is an open source java library licensed under the apache license for working with pdf documents 88 printing edit raster image processors rips are used to convert pdf files into a raster format suitable for imaging onto paper and other media in printers digital production presses and prepress in a process known as rasterization rips capable of processing pdf directly include the adobe pdf print engine 89 from adobe systems and jaws 90 and the harlequin rip from global graphics in 1993 the jaws raster image processor from global graphics became the first shipping prepress rip that interpreted pdf natively without conversion to another format the company released an upgrade to its harlequin rip with the same capability in 1997 91 agfa gevaert introduced and shipped apogee the first prepress workflow system based on pdf in 1997 many commercial offset printers have accepted the submission of press ready pdf files as a print source specifically the pdf x 1a subset and variations of the same 92 the submission of press ready pdf files is a replacement for the problematic need for receiving collected native working files in 2006 pdf was widely accepted as the standard print job format at the open source development labs printing summit it is supported as a print job format by the common unix printing system and desktop application projects such as gnome kde firefox thunderbird libreoffice and openoffice have switched to emit print jobs in pdf 93 some desktop printers also support direct pdf printing which can interpret pdf data without external help native display model edit this section needs more citations please help improve this section by adding citations to

x replacing the pict format of the earlier classic mac os the imaging model of the quartz graphics layer is based on the model common to display postscript and pdf leading to the nickname display pdf the preview application can display pdf files as can version 2 0 and later of the safari web browser 94 95 system level support for pdf allows macos applications to create pdf documents automatically provided they support the os standard printing architecture the files are then exported in pdf 1 3 format according to the file header when taking a screenshot under mac os x versions 10 0 through 10

note taking software adobe acrobat is one example of proprietary software that allows the user to annotate highlight and add notes to already created pdf files one unix application available as free software under the gnu general public license is pdfedit the freeware foxit reader available for microsoft windows macos and linux allows annotating documents tracker software s pdf xchange viewer allows annotations and markups without restrictions in its freeware alternative apple s macos s integrated pdf viewer preview does also enable annotations as does the open source software skim with the latter supporting interaction with latex synctex and pdfsync and integration with bibdesk reference management software 96 freeware qiqqa can create an annotation report that summarizes all the annotations and notes one has made across their library of pdfs the text verification tool exports differences in documents as annotations and markups there are also web annotation systems that support annotation in pdf and other document formats in cases where pdfs are expected to have all of the functionality of paper documents ink annotation is required conversion and information extraction edit pdf s emphasis on preserving the visual appearance of documents across different software and hardware platforms poses challenges to the conversion of pdf documents to other file formats and the targeted extraction of information such as text images tables bibliographic information and document metadata numerous tools and source code libraries support these tasks several
