IV. Creating PDFs from Professional Layout
Applications
Following these step-by-step instructions will enable you use professional layout
applications to produce PDFs that are optimized for display on the Sony® Reader. The
first part of the overall process is to create a document with the right dimensions and
layout. The second part of the process is to ensure that fonts and images used in your
document will all be embedded properly before you output your PDF. The final part of

enhancing your PDF with links are available in Section V ("Doing More with Adobe
Acrobat").
