My Supplier wants go go EDI, what do i do?

Hello experts,
I'm a manufacturing company in New York State. I have a long-time customer who has announced that they will ONLY accept EDI going forward, I don't know anything about EDI.
For the last 5 years, I've been sending PDF Purchase Orders and its been fine. But now they have said they will not accept that. They will only accept a XML file? I'm not an IT expert, how am I going to do this?
What is an XML file? Is that the same as EDI?
Please shed some light on this, its really frustrating.
