>From what I understand, my company installs pdf995 on everyone's machine and that is the default pdf maker for the company. (IDD, marketing and a few others use Acrobat Pro.)
I have used it at home for simple PDFs and it works great. Never used it at work.

I will look into it, particularly since a few of us use Acrobat Pro and the products are probably pretty similar in many regards - makes support easier. One other product I found while googling is www.pdf995.com! This has a pretty outstanding price for the Enterprise license. Has anybody used their stuff?
