About Photoshop PDF format
You can use the
Save As
command to save RGB, indexed-color, CMYK, grayscale, Bitmap-mode, Lab color, and duotone images in Photoshop
PDF
format. Because the Photoshop PDF document can preserve Photoshop data, such as layers, alpha channels,
notes, and spot color, you can open the document and edit the images in Photoshop CS2 or later.
You can quickly save a file as Photoshop PDF by playing the
Save As
Photoshop PDF action on the file. You can access this action by choosing Production from the Actions panel menu.
For advanced users, the Photoshop PDF format offers options for making the document PDF/X compliant, which is
essential, for example, when you send your document to a large commercial press. PDF/X (Portable Document Format
Exchange) is a subset of Adobe PDF that eliminates color, font, and trapping variables that lead to printing problems.
You can also specify security options for restricting access to the PDF document. The 128-bit RC4 (Acrobat 6 and later)
encryption has an option for letting users view metadata and thumbnails in a secure PDF document using Adobe
Bridge.
You can save your PDF settings as a PDF preset for creating consistent Photoshop PDF files. Adobe PDF presets and
settings are shared across Adobe
