The mime application/pdf media type indicates that an email’s attached file falls under the application MIME media type category. The file’s subtype is PDF, which stands for Portable Document File. The PDF format allows for the exchange of documents online and via e-mail despite compatibility issues between computers. The mime application/pdf was originally registered as a media type in 1993. A number of applications use the PDF format with Adobe Acrobat being the most prominent. When an email arrives as a mime application/pdf, it means that a PDF file is attached.

PDF files are formatted document files that can contain text, graphics, metadata, annotations, hyperlinks, and bookmarks. In order to open a PDF file, the recipient must have an application capable of opening PDF files such as Adobe Acrobat reader. Several different profiles of the PDF format are being developed such as the international PDF/A standard which is intended as an electronic document file format for long term preservation. Because the mime application/pdf is widely understood and the PDF format widely used, the mime application/pdf MIME type is used in other Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) specifications.
