We often meet the situation that PDF files have been made but we forget to add website logo or homepage link. This problem grew output of inadequacy but we can not avoid. PDF can not be edited casually with Adobe software installed. So then we need a tool which can be used to insert text or logo and add hyperlinks. VeryDOC Advanced PDF Editor has such functions.

What is EMF?

EMF(Windows Metafile) is 16-bit vector image format , it saves image data in an RGB format and does not support CMYK data, which often used for Microsoft Office applications such as Word, PowerPoint, and Publisher. The EMF format is device-independent, so the dimensions of a graphic are maintained on the printed copy regardless of the resolution in dots per inch of the printer.

As to what it is used for, when a print job is sent to the printer, if it is already printing another file, the computer reads the new file and stores it, usually on the hard disk or in memory, for printing at a later time. EMF files may be created and reside in memory or disk space when windows caches them while waiting on another printing job.
