PDF format becomes ISO standard 
Posted by Staff on 07/03 at 01:11 AM 
The Portable Document Format (PDF), undeniably one of the most commonly
used formats for electronic documents (and the technology the Mac OS X
=46inder is based on), is now accessible as an ISO International Standard
- ISO 32000-1. This move follows a decision by Adobe Systems
Incorporated, original developer and copyright owner of the format, to
relinquish control to ISO, who is now in charge of publishing the
specifications for the current version (1.7) and for updating and
developing future versions
