The Portable Document Format (PDF) is a file extension created by Adobe Systems in 1993 to facilitate document exchange across different systems. PDFs preserve the formatting of source documents, making them ideal for sharing text, images, and graphics in a consistent manner. Commonly used for forms, manuals, e-books, and reports, PDF files are platform-independent, ensuring the content appears the same on various devices and operating systems. This versatility has solidified its status as a standard in digital documentation, enhancing both compatibility and security in file sharing.
The TEXT file extension, is a format used for representing text data without any formatting or binary elements. Originating from the early days of computing, plain text files are utilized for scripting, configuration files, log files, and source code documentation due to their universal readability and ease of creation. They are compatible across different operating systems and software applications, making them essential for data interoperability and communication in various IT and development environments.
