Murgor: The Tender document was to provide JPEG. That requirement never changed, yet PDF Form 34As are all over IEBC portal
Murgor: I invite you to try out several software which can edit PDF, among them ADOBE Acrobat PRO DC and other 3rd party software.
I told this forum I have interacted with 3rd party software that could manipulate PDF as far back as year 2000, and pompous pundit told me not to argue with him.
Prior to 2000, all UN payslips were printed on pre-printed paper with 3-part carbon. So costly was this business, it was like tendering for printing of currency that must include security features. My innovation was to use paper AS CHEAP AS A4-paper and apply the security features such as watermarks that were/are inherent in PDF software which had grabbed market share by then. I pursued a copyright on my system with a view of patenting later but the powers that be stood in my way. They nonetheless acknowledge I saved them tons of money.
