Where can I get it??? Just to add another option... have you tried Open Office (which is free) instead of Word/Excel/Ghost Script/et al, and takes HTML output with CSS (or Open Office formatted XML amongst other formats) and outputs direct to PDF? It also runs under Windows, Linux and some other *nix environments. (Apologies if someone has mentioned Open Office as an option before - as someone mentioned recently, www.indexinfocus.com is um, how should I put this nicely, "sub-optimal" for searching.) Cheers, Stuart [ps. what is it with the "450 Lynx formatting failed error" that occurs when I don't send to the group in plain text format?] > -----Original Message----- > From: Tony Gravagno > Subject: RE: [U2] free txt-to-pdf converter > > My latest adventure into this area has been to send complex HTML 4.0 > with nice formatting, fonts, > etc into MS Word.
