4. Using Dedicated PDF Software:

5. Using Print to PDF (Windows) or Save as PDF (Mac):

- Customize any settings you want and then proceed to print. The output will be saved as a PDF file.
NOTE :- Remember that the process might vary slightly based on the software you're using, but the general idea remains the same: you're converting your existing document into the PDF format. After creating the PDF, make sure to verify that it looks as intended before sharing or distributing it.
