Hello list,

We would like to facilitate PC workstation users viewing mainframe-generated 
reports that have been composed by PSF using Formdefs / Pagedefs.

We have PSF but do not have ACIF or the Transform features (e.g. from AFP to 
PDF). We have VPS with a key for PCL but not PDF. There isn't any chance that 
either of the aforementioned features will be purchased. We have Adobe 
LiveCycle but I have no idea what conversion features we purchased (if any). We 
have CA-Deliver and CA-View, plus some workstation-based interface to CA-View 
called DocView (at a very old, outdated release level).

Applications Development would prefer to see the composed AFP pages converted 
into a .pdf file that can then be viewed at a PC using Acrobat Reader.

Failing that, it would be acceptable to somehow get the composed AFP (is that 
IPDS?) into a PC file that can be viewed using one of he many AFP freeware 
viewers. I have not been able to find a way to get PSF or VPS to output to a 
dataset / file rather than a printer.

Any input would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Alan
