Or check out XMITIP (https://github.com/lbdyck/xmitip or https://cbttape.org
file 314) which supports the text to pdf (plus others) and is open source,
using standard system interfaces and is also easy to install and use.

It's free, other than your time/resources so you can install and try it out
quickly and without dealing with contract negotiations, purchase orders,
etc. Depending on your needs it may be adequate - while not efficient as it
is mostly rexx (you can compile it if you have the rexx compiler) it does
work well and has for a couple of decades during which it has continued to
be enhanced.

Re: INFOPRINT SERVER EXPERIENCE

[Timothy Sipples]

IBM's AFP to PDF generator on z/OS is called IBM Print Transform from AFP to 
PDF for Infoprint Server for z/OS, IBM Program No. 5655-TF1. I'm biased I 
suppose, but it's a very good product. There are options available to generate 
accessible PDFs (PDFs that are suitable for users of screen reader software) 
and signed secure PDFs, to prevent PDF tampering. You can also encrypt PDFs, 
create annotations, bookmarks, links, and more.

The documentation for this product is available in (what else?) PDF here 
(direct link, subject to change):

https://www-40.ibm.com/servers/resourcelink/svc00100.nsf/pages/zOSV2R4G3252634/$file/aokfa00_v2r3.pdf

It's quite common to pair PDFs with IBM Content Manager for organizing, 
archiving, searching, retrieving, etc. That's available for z/OS too if you 
need it.

Re: INFOPRINT SERVER EXPERIENCE

[Brian Westerman]

While you can have the output delivered in PDF format, we don't support the 
data transforms, we call a routine that formats the output as a PDF, I thin the 
op is looking for something that performs the actual transforms like from IBM, 
LRS or Makinney systems

We use XPAF from Xerox. (We used to have mainframe-connected Xerox printers.)

Depending upon your requirements there is a free solution that runs on z/OS 
written by Leland Lucius called TXT2PDF. I wrote the ISPF front-end for it, 
which is very useful in experimenting with the available options. Open source 
so you can adjust/improve/etc. at will.

You can get it from www.cbttape.com and file 314.
