    A PDF file consists of typeset text, vector graphics, raster graphics, and multimedia objects. It supports links, forms, and JavaScript, and combines technologies such as a subset of PostScript for layout, a font-embedding system, and a structured storage system for bundling content. This allows for efficient document creation and sharing with embedded elements and data compression.

    Technical details

    A PDF file is often a combination of vector graphics, text, and bitmap


    graphics. The basic types of content in a PDF are:

     Typeset text stored as content streams (i.e., not encoded in plain text);
     Vector graphics for illustrations and designs that consist of shapes and
    lines;
     Raster graphics for photographs and other types of images; and
     Other multimedia objects.
    In later PDF revisions, a PDF document can also support links (inside
    document or web page), forms, JavaScript (initially available as a plugin for
    Acrobat 3.0), or any other types of embedded contents that can be handled
    using plug-ins.

    PDF combines three technologies:

     An equivalent subset of the PostScript page description programming


    language but in declarative form, for generating the layout and graphics.
     A font-embedding/replacement system to allow fonts to travel with the
    documents.
     A structured storage system to bundle these elements and any
    associated content into a single file, with data compression where
    appropriate.
