A printer that produces soft copies is typically a virtual printer, such as a PDF printer. Unlike traditional printers that create physical printouts, virtual printers allow users to generate digital documents that can be saved, shared, and viewed on electronic devices. Examples include software like Adobe PDF, Microsoft Print to PDF, or various online document conversion tools. These tools convert files into digital formats without producing hard copies.
