Hello,
If you get ghostscript and gsview (it's free, you will need
both) from: http://www.cs.wisc.edu/~ghost/ you
will be able to print .PS or .EPS files (also reads .PRN) to a .PDF
file. If you do not have the Acrobat Reader, you can view your PDF's with
gsview. Help is well documented.
They also have a printer driver (redmon) that will let you
print from any application to a postscript file, or use your non-postscript
printer to print postscript. This utility is a bit tricky to configure,
but the instructions are very good.
Regards,

Keith,
Sorry I guess you also need Abobe PDF writer
program, I thought that was also
free to download, I'm I wrong?
Sorry if
my answer missguided you in anyway.

Dan,
Great tip. I wasn't aware that the drivers
are free. However, unless
I'm missing something, I only have the ability to
print to a
PostScript file. Once I have that, I need to take it into
Distiller
to produce the PDF - I can't do it directly unless I were to
install
Distiller on the same PC as MapInfo.
