Hi,

I use a program called OpenOffice Writer to convert word files to pdf`s with the click of a button.

OpenOffice.org takes the place of Microsoft Office because unlike MO, OO is absolutely free to download and use.

You can use MO document inside of openoffice. You can save to the MO formats and much more. Like I said, I use openoffice writer (the same as MO word) to take military manuals and turn them into pdf format. All I do is click one button in the tool bar. Simple, easy, and FREE!!! That`s what I love about it.

Take care.

Dan

I prefer Cute PDF over PDF995.  It works just as well without the annoying ads suggesting you upgrade to a paid version everytime you use it.

Thank you all for the great suggestions! I knew I could count on my fellow SUNers to help me out in a jam.

Dan- I will check OpenOffice out - sounds interesting! Of course, anything FREE is very interesting to me ;0)

InnerMonkey - Thanks! If I get sick of the ads, I`ll definately switch over. And who wouldn`t want a Cute PDF?! Gosh, now that I think of it, I`d probably buy alot more `Cute` things...what else do they have?! I`m a sucker for anything mini too...might be a girl thing

If you want something windows based I think you can take the HTML to PDF converter library for .NET from http://www.dotnet-reporting.com or from http://www.winnovative-software.com. You can be build your own application or you can use the demo one. 

All the conversion can be done in a few lines for C# code:

       // Create the PDF converter. Optionally you can specify the virtual browser
        // width as parameter. 1024 pixels is default, 0 means autodetect
        PdfConverter pdfConverter = new PdfConverter();
        // set the license key
        pdfConverter.LicenseKey = "P38cBx6AWW7b9c81TjEGxnrazP+J7rOjs+9omJ3TUycauK+cLWdrITM5T59 hdW5r";
        // set the converter options
        pdfConverter.PdfDocumentOptions.PdfPageSize = PdfPageSize.A4;
        pdfConverter.PdfDocumentOptions.PdfCompressionLevel = PdfCompressionLevel.Normal;
        pdfConverter.PdfDocumentOptions.PdfPageOrientation = PDFPageOrientation.Portrait;
        pdfConverter.PdfDocumentOptions.ShowHeader = false;
        pdfConverter.PdfDocumentOptions.ShowFooter = false;
        // set to generate selectable pdf or a pdf with embedded image
        pdfConverter.PdfDocumentOptions.GenerateSelectablePdf = selectablePDF;

        // Performs the conversion and get the pdf document bytes that you can further
        // save to a file or send as a browser response
        byte[] pdfBytes = pdfConverter.GetPdfFromUrlBytes(urlToConvert);

      

It`s so abundant to accept a abode to appear for advice if you charge it. Even these little things assume like huge problems if you`re clueless .

I actually haven`t heard from them since they first called to tell me they had a potential match for me. So I`m kind of ready to get on the move, and might call this week to prod them a bit. :)
