What does Adobe Acrobat Distiller do?
Adobe Acrobat Distiller is the application that actually creates the PDF file out of the PostScript file. Distiller functions much like a software version of a printing device, but instead of outputting a printed page, rather outputs an electronic file in the form of a PDF.Once the CREO Distiller Assistant Job Options has been installed in Distiller, a PostScript file may simply be dragged to the Distiller window and the application will begin generating the PDF (compatibility Acrobat 4 (1.3).
