PMFJI, but you might want to check out Rich Simpson's report writing engine (www.mindseyeinc.com). It's object orientd and generates PDF files from froxpro FRX files without a phantom printer.

I use the Amyuni driver, myself. Creating PDF's as described in the original message would create no problems - we've only encountered problems when streaming the PDF back to Internet Explorer without using an intermediate file (which seems to be a problem with all PDF generating tools - based on what I'm seeing on other developer threads). Amyuni does, however, use a phantom printer to work.
