AFP (Advanced Function Presentation; sometimes also given as Advanced Function Printing) is a document storage and distribution format created by IBM in the 1980s, designed to store document structure and presentation and drive printers for output. It is a complex format that is difficult to deal with other than with IBM's proprietary software, and often uses the uncommon EBCDIC character encodings instead of ones based on ASCII or Unicode (since it originated on IBM systems that used this), but it is still a common document exchange format in some business environments.
