If you want a PDF version, get something like PDF CREATE by scansoft (~$50US at CompUSA, if not on sale). It creates a virtual printer that you select when printing the document. It then takes the document and "prints" it to a PDF file.

It is great for posting stuff online, too. I use it in my ministry for newsletters, workbook updates, etc.. By using PDF instead of HTML folks don't have to worry about printing issues. Plus, documents can be searchable.

Just my $0.02US.

As I recall you are stuck with the page size originally selected when creating a PDF. So we get these PDF files produced in the US in some weird inch-based paper format (like "legal") that the rest of the world that is on ISO standards (e.g. A4) cannot then print?. (It has been a long while since I tried printing a PDF, but have some recollection of the page size being 100% hard-coded?).

Cheers
Andy
