    PDF Confession of Love|Adobe Inc.

    【Client】Adobe Inc.
    【Agency】Hakuhodo Inc.
    【Production】Hakuhodo Product’s Inc.

    After school on the rooftop, a high‑school boy hands a love letter to a girl in his class.
    ‘C‑could you please accept this?’

    Her reply: ‘I’m sorry!’

    Rejected— or so it seems, until she adds one more line:
    ‘…Could I get it as a PDF instead?’

    Thus begins a quirky coming‑of‑age tale in which a girl insists on receiving her love letter in PDF format, and the flustered boy—helped by his friends—keeps revising and refining it, determined to craft the perfect PDF confession of love.
