How+to+Create+a+PDF

It is important to convert your Word Docs and other files into a **PDF**, especially when submitting resumes, cover letters, and writing samples. PDF (which stands for Portable Document File) allows you to send content that **cannot** be edited by your reciever and can be viewed on practically all computers and portable devices (tablet, phone, etc.)

There are several ways you can create a PDF:

1) If your computer has a proper software for creating PDFs, you can select **File** and scroll down to **Print.** Select the appropriate print settings (such as CutePDF Writer for PCs) and print. If you have a Mac, the steps are the same and usually there is a PDF print function that is already installed on the computer.

2) If you have a Google account, you can upload your document on to GoogleDocs. **Click** the Printer symbol on the top left corner to create a PDF.

3) You can also visit [] for free PDF conversion. The document is emailed to you within minutes.
