OTHER FILE TYPES
Save an RDO as an Adobe PDF File
There are many reasons to save an RDO as an Adobe PDF file. Adobe PDF files are 
portable. You can send them to customers, and they can display them, review them, and 
suggest changes. You can also submit Adobe PDF files to most printers or publish them on 
the web.
When you create an Adobe PDF file from an RDO, all the formatting of the RDO is captured 
in the Adobe PDF file. However, any job ticket options, including covers, inserts, and tabs 
are not stored in the Adobe PDF file.
Save As dialog box in DSM
With an RDO open:
Select [File: Save As].
Select [PDF Files 
(*.pdf)]
 from the Save 
as type
 drop-down list 
box.
Use the Save in drop-
down list box and the 
directory window 
below it to navigate to 
the directory where the 
new Adobe PDF file 
will be stored.
