Good points - if the Distiller License from EXCHANGE ... back in day "is"
that loose.
I remember hearing some similar rumblings on this in the past - may be.
However; the pdf that these systems generate is not the latest and greatest,
and will likely have issues - especially with forms/fields. Again... if all
you need is real simple pdf files - there are many many free alternatives
that would probably be easier to implement other than a Distiller /file io
process.
All the best,
Steve
