What do you use for PDF generation?
Hi, all. Pardon the slightly unrelated to FrameMaker questions, but I am figure I am not too far off the mark here, since you all are likely to be very familiar with similar polices to what I describe here. We are standardizing on a new policy that documents/files sent outside the company must be in PDF form only. No Word or Excel (typically) or FrameMaker (of course! :) ) files. And, obviously, it does not include text e-mail! This means that we must install PDF creation software on all our user computers ... including laptops and ones that may not be connected to the Internet at all times. Acrobat Professional is too expensive a solution for this, plus it is overkill for most of our employees. We have some people who only create documents and files in Word or Excel for example. Hence, my questions: 1. What are you all using for PDF file creation? 2. Does it allow forms? I.e., for external folks to fill in fields and send back the form! 3. What would you recommend we do, if you were setting up a similar policy? Thanks!

Hi, Bill. Bill Swallow wrote: If you have enough people who need to create PDFs by corporate mandate, look into setting up Adove Acrobat Elements. It's a volume license solution that starts at 100 seats. Your entire company could be set up to use this. Thanks! You are the second person to refer to this product. 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?

If you have enough people who need to create PDFs by corporate mandate, look into setting up Adove Acrobat Elements. It's a volume license solution that starts at 100 seats. Your entire company could be set up to use this.
