Hi Gavin,

You could use distiller's watch folder functionality and create a PS file in the watched folder (using a postscript printer driver to file). Watch out for licensing issues though -- you may need a multi-user version of distiller.

Cheers,

Andrew

> I'm currently working on an LAN application ( not web ) that requires an option to output VFP6.0 reports to PDF. I've done this previously using Rick Strahl's WWPDF classes and Adobe Acrobat Distiller installed on the Client. The application I'm currently working on requires that Distiller ( or any other PDF generator ) resides on the server and that all report output created on the client is generated as PDF on the server. My previous experience with creating PDF with VFP6.0 has been purely on the client. Has anyone here had experience with creating PDF reports on the server from VFP reports generated on a client? Any advice would be most helpful.

If we were to introduce Visual FoxBase+, would we be able to work from the dotNet Prompt?
