Probably depends on your platform. On macintosh, this is a one step operation menu file /Print then send to a file instead of a printer there is a save as file item which allows you to delect PDF if you have acrobat ( distiller, exchange) installed. teh step are sequenced automatically complete notebook->Postscript->Distiller->PDF Silver Jones wrote: > > I have seen a few notebooks that were converted to Adobe Acrobat PDF > files.
