Hi All, My goal is to extract data from a small area on a lot of very similar PDF files. One way is to convert the PDF file into a JPG or TIFF and then use the new RTwain2PDF to capture the data. But first I have to be able to convert the PDF file into a JPG or a TIFF. I can do that outside of RBase, but I would rather do it within Rbase if I can. Is there a way from within Rbase to convert the first page of a PDF file into a TIFF or a JPG? I found a print driver that will do the conversion if I can get Rbase to print a file rather than a report. The shared print driver/virtual printer is called UDC. SO,I have been trying to use... from a command prompt.....net use lpt9 \\mikeslaptop\UDC then from an R> copy filename.pdf lpt9 or copy fillename.pdf \\mikeslaptop\UDC But that does not work for me. Is there a way to do this with Rbase? Mike
