I looked around for this too, but didn't find anything. ActivePDF sounded close, but it doesn't yet support Office 2003. The new <cfdocument> tag looks very interesting, but can't import a document. I think you can set up a watch folder in Acrobat Distiller, but that requires .ps files. I looked into setting up a watch folder for Acrobat Writer, which seems like the ideal solution, but couldn't see how to do it.
Any other ideas?
