PDF Document Format

PDF Converter

PDF stands for ‘Portable Document Format’ file. It was developed by Adobe so people could share documents regardless of which device, operating system, or software they were using, while preserving the content and formatting. The format has evolved to allow for editing and interactive elements like electronic signatures or buttons. The PDF format is now a standard open format that isn’t just available under Adobe Acrobat. It is maintained by the International Organisation for Standardization (ISO).

PDF files aren’t typically created from scratch, but are usually converted, saved or ‘printed’ from other documents or images before sharing, publishing online or storing. They can be viewed on almost all devices. Creating a PDF can involve compressing a file, making it take up less storage space. You would typically create a PDF if you wanted to ensure document fidelity, to make it more secure, or to create a copy for storage.

CSV Document Format

CSV Converter

CSV is a type of file for saving spreadsheet data which is recognised by almost all spreadsheet programs. CSV stands for ‘comma separated values’, and if you open a CSV file outside a spreadsheet program, you will see plain text with the data separated, usually by commas, semi-colons, or quotation marks. If you open that same CSV file in a spreadsheet program like Microsoft Excel, Apple Numbers, Google Sheets or LibreOffice Calc, each separated piece of data should then be transferred into an individual cell.

Because CSV files are recognised by almost all spreadsheet programs, they are used as a simple way to export data or transfer it between different programs. However, CSV is a plain text format, so CSV files cannot include advanced spreadsheet functions like charts, formulas, filters, or formatting. There is also not currently a universal open standard for all CSV files.
