Distiller is a tool within the Acrobat package.   The Acrobat application will allow one to:   a) Open the PDF that Distiller makes (you can also do this in the free Adobe Reader).   b) Add functionality to or modify the PDF.   Rich From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Srinivasulu Sent: Friday, January 16, 2004 6:01 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [PDF-Basics] Why Acrobat ?

The best part is that OpenOffice.org is free from http://www.OpenOffice.org. George Rich Sprague wrote: No, Steve.   You need Adobe Acrobat.
