The problem with software995 (and others) is the lack of control for paging and fonts sizing -- I have docs that work perfectly going to PCL, landscape, line printer font, but none of the 'free' pdf creators will honor the spacing required, or give you a way to really accurately control it. The PCL commands sent via our application are seen as extra 'data' by the PDF products as they expect to be fed WINDOWS Printer insructions...
So - if it's formatted for use via PCL, you may or may not get what you want - we ended up with 'line creep' on most all of the 'free' pdf products - or with the rightmost data cut off on really wide/full page utilized items! You'll have to try several potentially before you find one that will work for you if you're trying to format data to match paper forms - if you just need a raw 'data dump' to PDF, then most any will perform - do a google on Free PDF - there's a lot out there!
