I coulda swore that I saw a thread about printing or handling PDFs on one of these lists, but I can't find it now. But someone may find this use of Kirk's baby interesting and useful.
ZPDFSEND - An application that converts a z/OS FCFC print file to a PDF file and emails the PDF file http://www-03.ibm.com/support/techdocs/atsmastr.nsf/WebIndex/TD104449 Abstract: This Techdoc provides two Java programs and sample JCL to run the programs using the JZOS Java batch launcher. The first program, Zpdf.java, converts ANS FCFC (American National Standard first-character forms-control) print files to PDF files. The second program, Zmail.java, emails a USS file (such as the PDF file created by Zpdf.java) using SMTP. The two Java programs can be used together or independently. The ZPDFSEND file contains a batch job that runs the Zpdf and Zmail programs using the JZOS batch launcher. As with any Java program running on a z/OS system, Zpdf.java and Zmail.java will run on a zAAP processor if one is present on the system Aaron ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html
