RE: AFPDS to PDF conversion problems

Jeff,

I had some similar type problems when first implementing a PDF archival
project at my prior place of employment.

I worked together with the vendor of the spool file conversion software
(Gumbo in my case) and we were able to correct the problems.

I suggest you contact the vendor of you spool file conversion software.

HTH,

Charles Wilt

Subject: AFPDS to PDF conversion problems

I am attempting to create a PDF file from an AFPDS spool file 
htat contains an overlay.
The document prints fine on the actual printer, but when I 
convert it to a PDF, I have problems.
The text is offset down 1 line and right 3 positions when I 
view the PDF file.
The offset in the printer file is 0,0.
I have tried the IBM Print Services product as well as other 
products available and get the same problem.
Also, for some documents, the overlay is rotated to Landscape 
on the PDF although it prints in Portrait on the printer.
The print file specifies a CPI of 13.3 and LPI of 6.
 
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
 
Thanks,
 
Jeff Young
