Word makes a copy of the PDF, converting it to a Word document and attempting to match layout of the original PDF

Your computer knows where to grab image links, fonts, and other information but your printer’s computer does not, which is why it’s important to compress all information needed into a PDF file for printing3

PDFs Are the Perfect Size Other file formats tend to be large and can create issues when sharing them with your printer including native files like Adobe InDesign’s INDB or Adobe Photoshop’s PSD formatsThese files are considered native files because they were created in a specific program and contain specific features or layers only available in that programThese native files are much larger than PDFs because they contain data that only the program they were created in use

For example, a Photoshop PSD file contains data for every layer that makes up an imageThese layers are used in Photoshop to help the designer manipulate assets and filters within an image, giving them the ability to move and manipulate one part of an image without disturbing the others

Some PSD files can contain hundreds of layers and modifiers which can inflate the files size with information that is not necessary for printing the file

Since artwork files need to be transferred over the internet to your printer, the smaller the file size, the faster it can be sent, which is where PDFs come into playThankfully, there are still a few different ways to do so, including manually copying and pasting the data, using free online tools like Docparser, and using paid tools like Adobe Acrobat Pro DC and PanaForma
