About PDF Patterns
PDF is an abbreviation for "Portable Document Format". This file format allows universal access from any type of computer. If you would like to read more about this file format, Wikipedia has a full & detailed description - here is the direct link Portable Document Format.
The benefits of providing patterns in this format:
- quick delivery - virtually instantaneous, by email as an attachment or via download
- universal access from any computer. Most computers already have a reader installed - for those who may need it, it is available free from the Adobe website
- pattern can be re-printed at any time should the need arise - worn out from use or inadvertently damaged/torn
