Re: [PLUG] OT: Publisher 98 to PDF

This involves Linux very indirectly.  I have a Red Hat Web server on

Publisher 98 files into PDF files?


You'll need a Windows machine with Publisher and Acrobat installed. AFAIK there aren't any tools for Linux that can handle Publisher - so even if you want to do the PDF production on your server, you'd still need to do at least Publisher->PS (or something) on Windows.


It might be a LOT easier to simply teach the person using Publisher to create a Postscript file, OR to purchase one of the cheapy PDF creation tools for Windows and avoid that entirely.
