Creating PDF styles
A PDF style is a group of publishing settings that you select and save so that you can reuse them when you publish other files to PDF. For example, suppose that at the end of each month, you need to publish a report that will be viewed online. You can create a PDF style that is optimal for online viewing. Then, instead of manually choosing each setting when you publish the report to PDF, you can choose this preset style. Using PDF styles saves you time and ensures the consistency of the report. In addition, you can edit any PDF style that you create.
