What
Exactly are PDF Real Estate Forms?
Portable Document Format (PDF) is the open de facto
standard for electronic document distribution worldwide.
PDF
files and documents can contain any combination
of text, graphics, and images. Documents can be
one page or thousands of pages, very simple or extremely
complex making use of elaborate fonts, graphics,
color, actions, form fields, links, and images.
PDF
is a unique format that allows the identical presentation
of a file without regard to the software and hardware
used to view it. These files are a perfect vehicle
for sharing information among the diverse computing
environments that make up the Internet.
The
PDF conversion process uses licensed digital conversion
software. This software does not use risky processes
such as Optical Character Recognition (OCR) scanning
that often results in loss or alteration of information
and documents of poor quality.
Graphics
and other form items are embedded in the document
(they appear in the document exactly as they do
in hard copy).
File
sizes can be kept very small (on a standard-speed
modem, one page transfers in about two seconds).
PDF files are fully text-searchable using digital PDF software.
PDF is a universal file format that preserves all
of the fonts, formatting, colors, and graphics of
any source document, regardless of the application
and platform used to create it. Therefore, anyone
can open your document across a broad range of hardware
and software, and it will look exactly as you intended
– with layout, fonts, links, and images intact.
PDF files are compact and can be shared, viewed,
navigated, and printed exactly as intended by anyone
with the free digital PDF viewer, with more than
110 million downloads so far.
Digital
Office Software delivers specific trade varieties
of complete real estate form and tool collections,
with automated tools for using the digital® PDF 4x5
file format.
Complete, review, print out, distribute, and save
real estate contracts, brochures, flyers, papers,

Digital
Office 5.0 is by far, the best software program
I have purchased in the 20+ years I have been
involved in the industry!
I now know, that with Internet access to regional
multiple listing service and this product,
you can successfully run your entire business
from anywhere..
I am a not a computer whiz; in fact I am a
novice with no desire to learn more than I
have to and little patience with the whole
techno-craze. I have found this so incredibly
easy to master, that other agents and clients
are constantly referring to my forms and the
ease of producing documents, as if I were
an expert.
Because
of the more professional services I have been
able to deliver using your program, I have
received and closed 4 referral clients within
the past 3 months as a direct result of this
unbelievable software program.
