Top Ten Advantages of Having PDF Files

Invented by Adobe Systems and perfected since 1993, Portable Document Format (PDF) lets you capture and view robust information — from almost any application, on any computer system — and share it with virtually anyone, anywhere. Individuals, businesses, and government agencies around the world trust and rely on PDF to communicate their ideas and vision.

People have clearly discovered some advantages of PDF files, but only a few are actively creating PDF files themselves. So why should you consider creating your own PDF documents? I present you the top 10 advantages of this widely popular format:

  • 1. Compatible Across platforms


From Windows, Mac, Linux, to even modern mobile phones and PDA’s: PDF files can be opened on basically any system! You do not have to worry about your co-workers, students, family, or whomever you are sharing your work with, not being able to open your files.

  • 2. Compact & Small


When you convert an existing document to a PDF file, it will automatically be highly optimized making it much smaller in size without losing any quality. Note that you can often also combine and merge multiple documents into one single PDF: spreadsheets, word documents, photos, etc..: you can join them all together into a single PDF File!

  • 3. Can be created from any source document/application


The powerful technology behind the PDF format allows you to convert almost any document, from any application to a PDF file. With a decent PDF Creator your PDF file will just look like you printed your file on high quality paper.

  • 4. Securable, avoid people from modifying & redistributing your work


Protect your PDF File, and prevent users from printing, duplicating or even opening your work. The encrypted protection makes it possible to share your work, without having to worry about various doom scenarios.

  • 5. Secure, almost no chance of getting infected with viruses.


There is almost no chance of a PDF file getting infected with something like a virus or trojan, which makes it a safe and trusted way of sharing your work.

  • 6. Easy and quick to create when using the right software


You’ll find a ton of different PDF conversion programs on the internet, one looking even more fancier than the other, with prices varying from $30 to $300 or more. Most of them are pretty easy to use though, and you’ll usually be able to convert your documents to PDF in a few simple clicks. Choosing a good software solution is another story, but you can find some advice at my other PDF Creator article.

  • 7. Software to view PDF Files is completely free


Software like Acrobat Reader to open PDF Files can be downloaded for free, and is already installed on most computers. Often it will be installed in combinations with other software you bought on CD-Rom. (A lot of companies deliver their documentation as PDF files.)

  • 8. Viewable within most web-browsers


You are simply able to open and view PDF files in your favorite web-browser. You can simply click a link whenever someone links to a PDF file on a website, and the file will be opened automatically.

  • 9. PDF Files meet legal document requirements.


A document must be kept in a format that cannot be changed or altered without leaving any footprints, if you want it to be admissible in a court of law. A created PDF file cannot be altered, and usually meets these legal requirements. (Contact a legal advisor for more info.)

  • 10. Compatible with modern portable reader systems


This is a whole new but powerful phenomenon: various companies are working on digitally paper pads. These flat panels, not much larger than a regular book, allow you to upload your PDF files to the device, so you can read through the information like a normal book.

PowerPoint Lecture Room 2: The 10/20/30 Rule of PowerPoint

Guy Kawasaki, whose blog “How to Change the World” was ranked in the top 2,000 most-popular blog globally in September 2009, is a famous Silicon Valley venture capitalist, who has put forward the 10/20/30 rule of PowerPoint. It is this idea that is an optimal outline for the content, length, and font of a good presentation, which is very helpful for each PowerPoint presenter, as well as applicable for any presentation to achieve the goal.

He points out that: a PowerPoint presentation should have ten slides, last no more than twenty minutes, and contain no font smaller than thirty points.

  • Ten slides


The presentation cannot be too short or too long. If it will be too short, the speaker will not reveal the essence of the matter. If it will be too long, the audience will get tired and will pass over the very important information.

Many PowerPoint presenters always try to put on slides everything they know about the topic of their presentation. This is a typical mistake. You should select key points only from the information you have found. Do not put unessential information: it will divert attention from the key points of your presentation.

A normal human being cannot comprehend more than ten concepts in a meeting. Thus, the recommended number of slides for a presentation is ten. You can add more for necessary and interesting details, in-depth explanation, or tricky questions, if it will be necessary. Do not forget that, try to concentrate on the absolute essentials.

  • Twenty minutes


Try to get through your presentation in twenty minutes. There are several reasons for this.

First, you will not be given more than twenty minutes if there are other speakers. Second, people usually keep concentration during 15-20 minutes. After this period, the level of concentration starts decreasing very fast. The information, which will be presented after twenty minutes period, will be missed. Last but not the least, the time for discussion should also be taken into consideration.

  • Thirty-point-font text


Generally, it will be very difficult for the audience to read the text smaller than fourteen points. If you have to use a small font to present your information, it means that you are putting too much detail on the slide. Each slide should contain one key point.

Use slides to lead, not read. They should paraphrase and enhance what speaker is trying to say. Because people can read faster than you talk, if you put too much detail on the slide, the audience will read ahead of you and not listen to what you are saying. The result is that you and the audience are out of synch.

Guy Kawasaki states in his blog that, “if ‘thirty points’ is too dogmatic, I offer you an algorithm: find out the age of the oldest person in your audience and divide it by two. That is your optimal font size.” It is a little funny, but you can have a try.

In a word, outline a few words about the topic you are going to present, and then describe these few words in detail. This approach will be more effective than putting everything you know on the slide.

By the way, you can burn your PowerPoint Presentation with Moyea PPT to DVD Burner Pro to DVD to play it on a DVD player, or convert it into a video via Moyea PPT to Video Converter to upload it to Youtube. Just try it.

PowerPoint Lecture Room 1: Ways to Make an Excellent PowerPoint

In comparison with hand-drawn or mechanically typeset slides, black/whiteboards, or overhead projections, the easy-to-use Microsoft Office PowerPoint is popular with business people, educators, students, and trainers for its high permeability.


Despite the functions of Microsoft Office PowerPoint are being upgraded as the launch of new version, and its style, animation and multimedia abilities have become little more sophisticated gradually, there are also some tips the presenters, especially the new-hands, should pay attention to.


In this article, I will tell you several completely simple and non-time-consuming tips on how you can make a great PowerPoint Presentation. If you are a seasoned PowerPoint user, you would have probably heard this all before, please do not bother leaving some comments to listing unmentioned tips.




  1. Never put too much on one slide. If you have loads of information, you can either say it out aloud or put it on several slides. If you spread it out, it looks like you are more knowledgeable about the subject anyway.

  2. Keep the text large enough. A common trap that so many people fall into is having the text too small. If people cannot read what you have said, there is no point in saying it! That you can read it sitting at your computer does not mean that people sitting several meters away can read it too.

  3. Pay attention to the fonts. Although you have lots of freedom to choose the fonts, please make sure that the fonts should be big enough for people to read and in a legible style. As for the style, you also need to keep with the theme of your PowerPoint. By the way, you can find many great FREE fonts at internet and there are instructions on how to install them on the site.

  4. Be consistent in theme. It does not mean that you cannot have more than one theme, but just means that you should have the same theme for the same subjects. For example, you could split your presentation into four parts and have a different theme for each part. Do not have a different theme per slide!

  5. Keep the colors coordinated. Do not have white text on a white background. Obviously, no one would do that, but you should get the gist of it. Make sure that each of your slides has the maximum contrast between the text and the background. You could use PowerPoint’s built-in color schemes, but if you are using a picture from a background, you just have to decide yourself whether you can read ALL of the text or not.

  6. Vary the slide content. If each slide only contains bullet points, the lack of variety will bore your audience, so simply change the layout using the function that comes up whenever you make a new slide.

  7. Be enthusiastic. If you are genuinely enthusiastic about what you are presenting, then some of your enthusiasm will "rub off" on the audience and they will enjoy your presentation more.

  8. Avoid any spelling errors. The subtitle says it all really, and this is truly embarrassing, so avoid it at all costs.


Now you have all of these great tips, there is nothing to stop you from making a great presentation.


PS: Great PowerPoint cannot do without beautiful and suitable templates, here are some free PowerPoint templates of various themes you can download, and I wish you would like them.
