AFP conversion to PDF revisited

[AnetteK@xxxxxxxxxx]

I have spent most of today on the web and the Midrange site reading up 
about this! From most of the mails on the Midrange site it seems that this 
is an impossibility unless one spends money. The problem I have is that I 
do not require the comprehensive software that most of the vendors are 
punting. All I require is a simple API which can be included seamlessly 
into my application/s that will convert my AFP report to a PDF, based on 
certain parameters,nothing more - and then I want this without spending 
money as well *smile* quite a tall order I am afraid.

I looked at the following article in great detail and since I already have 
a program that converts from SPLF to PDF this is not of much help - unless 
someone could offer me some advice to the contrary. The article does refer 
to the ability to add a watermark to the objects and my thoughts were to 
possibly use my overlay as the water mark - question is whether this would 
work. So if anyone has tried something along these lines with this utility 
I would appreciate any input into my dilemma (since not only am I short of 
money but also of time).
