Hi Bob,

Thanks for the advice. I've had a look at your PS2PDF download. Excellent product !!! It does exactly what I want.

Regards,

>and depending on your experience, you could put ghostscript on the 'server' either linux / unix or Nt/2000 and have it work to convert your vfp .ps files to pdf files. If you wanted to ghostscript, you could install the printer driver and a port monitor called redmon which basically executes the program ps2pdf when some print application requests a print.

>The concept is really simple, have vfp create a .ps file using any print driver which creates a .ps file (hp lj5 for example) then use a 'converter' which converts your .ps file to a pdf file. This can be done in one step, using just the printer driver, or some sort of directory watching program, or manually.

>>Hi All,
>>
>> 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.
