Convert TAX2018 to PDF

Understanding TAX2018 and PDF file formats

The TAX2018 file format is a data file used by TurboTax, a popular tax preparation software. These files contain tax return data for the year 2018, including personal information, income details, deductions, and credits. They are essential for users who need to access or modify their tax returns for that specific year.

On the other hand, a PDF (Portable Document Format) is a versatile file format developed by Adobe. It is widely used for sharing documents because it preserves the formatting across different devices and platforms. PDFs are ideal for printing and sharing tax documents as they ensure the content remains unchanged.
