How to Create PDFs In Microsoft 365 and Use Adobe Acrobat DC

Save As PDF Feature in Microsoft 365 Applications

 

Save As PDF is different from Print to PDF to using the Adobe Plugin option because it translates the information you’d see on the printed page and converts it to a pdf file.

 

***The following example uses Microsoft 365 Word but the Save As PDF feature can be used in Word, Excel, PowerPoint, etc.

 

1. When the file is completed, select File in the upper left hand corner.
