Well... the answer is "no." I sure can't.

The real question is "can a spool file be sent to a PC folder?"

Right now we open Ops Navigator and drag & drop the output that way,
but I would very much like to automate the step.

We do this for several customers using lp5250d from the tn5250 project. We set up one or more out queues that create PDFs on a Samba share.

the design of operating systems. please pass them along to redmond
when you're done reading them :)
