I think Brad Stone has a product that will do AFP to PDF. It can be found
at http://www.bvstools.com. I think it's about $329.00 American. To me it's
a no brainer. I don't believe in re-inventing the wheel. We use his SPLTOOL
tools and they're outstanding. They've totally streamlined our report
delivery processes.

Thanks,

Mark

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).
