Pokémon df comic-3

I searched it up df and pdf both mean files so my pun was correct

pdf is a file type.

Hmmmm I wonder if Adobe has been around longer the Pokemon forums (and I know we used Adobe in highschool possibly the same time as Pokemon's first release)? I'm assuming so but it may be close since Pokemon is only 30 years old.

BRB, I'll look it up.

@Evolve8eon

Adobe and PDF has been around for longer than I realized.

Quoting:

The Portable Document Format (PDF) was created by Adobe Systems. Development began in 1991 under a project code-named Camelot, initiated by Adobe co-founder John Warnock. The format was officially introduced and released on June 15, 1993, alongside the first version of Adobe Acrobat

So, yup, PDF as in the file type was here before Pokemon.

Exactly that 🙂. My just prior comment was that I was curious which one came first. Pokemon or Adobe because I knew they were around the same couple of years. That was after you clarified pdf, in your case, was a pun for Pokemon:

That's why I quoted the history. I think it's interesting. And yes, it is a good pun.

(Just a note though, that this thread is not titled PDF or PFD, the spelling out of one word and not the rest caused confusion when combined with the topic of the cartoon.)
