We use pstill on unix platform and it works well. Not sure if it runs on
W2K.

Look into enscript and ghostscript. Enscript will take text and output
postscript, ghostscript will take the postscript and output pdf. Have used
these products to convert HOLD items to pdf on UV running on W2K.

Take a look at Cyqwin:
http://www.cygwin.com
It's an open source Linux-like environment for Windows.
With 'enscript' and the ghostscript tool 'ps2pdf', you can create command
line scripts to generate PDF files from plain text.

Check out www.pdf995.com
Using this, the pdf file can be created from any application (word, notepad,
wordpad or any other text editor) by simply selecting the Print Command.

Take a look at GhostScript. It's a pretty comprehensive method of dealing with
postscript stuff that just happens to include the abiltiy to produce pdf documents
with a command line interface. We've been using it on an hp-ux machine for a long
time now. I also have it running on an XP
If you need to convert from PCL formatted documents (those already
formatted for HP laserjets) then visual software pcl2pdf32 is a great
product. Includes pcl2pdf32.exe command line interface.
