Title: PDF maker
Post by: swift240 on March 31, 2007, 04:02:53 PM

Hi all,
Just been thinking is there a program for the Amiga that you can construct your own PDF docs ?
I have tried Aminet but cant seem to find anything.

I know on a PC there is Adobe that you can buy to make PDF docs but I dont fancy paying zillions to do that.
But I cant find one on the Amiga, or is there?

TIA,

Mike.

Current versions of Pagestream can do it directly, I think. Otherwise, I think you need to convert Postscript output to PDF via Ghostscript.

I have PageStream 3.0i that I use.

I second that,  Pagestream (http://www.grasshopperllc.com) does an excellent job of creating PDF files on the Amiga.
