Changing any file extension does not change a format and is doomed to failure (in any application)

There are PDF publishing solutions available from $ free (PDF995) to Adobe Acrobat (full version, not the free Reader) which costs many $ hundreds.

I use PublishPDF, about $100.

Some programs do it natively, such as Open Office.

237376 2004-05-19 03:26:00 Sorry caffy, not quite that simple. First you have to part with gold to buy the writer. When you install it, it places a coiuple of small toolbar icons in your Windows screen. Then you can prepare your document and convert it to .pdf. Scouse (83)
237377 2004-05-19 03:36:00 If you are a smart operator and using an Apple Mac it has a PDF creater built into the OS X operating system. Jim B (153)
237378 2004-05-21 11:31:00 I have installed Open Office for one reason - I can open a Word file in OO and save it as a PDF file. Great! rodb (1561)

237381 2004-05-22 02:29:00 I think Young Tom may have meant depravation?

1. Detraction; depreciation. [Obs.]

2. The act of depraving, or making anything bad; the act of corrupting.

3. The state of being depraved or degenerated; degeneracy; depravity.

4. (Med.) Change for the worse; deterioration; morbid perversion.

And I get these thoughts from only visiting the deep south ....

237382 2004-05-22 07:47:00 There is a little program called "Jaws" which, in effect, creates a PDF printer on your computer. When you have completed a document you simply select the "Jaws" printer and it will create a PDF file of your document. Brilliant :) Mzee (158)
