Are you running LMS from TMC??

If so, then I have a solution that will do what your after.  I use a couple of perl 
scripts and a Word macro to allow our billing staff to get a text version of the 
invoice in Word, mark it up and then re-print it back to the HP-UX machine.  The 
reprint process takes the print file and turns it into a PDF that is then stored for 
future reference via a web based lookup page.

Thanks,

The goal is to have a copy of our invoice that can be opened in WORD or Excel.  I only 
mentioned the PCL and .pdf formats because these are already produced when we create 
an invoice.  If there is another way please let me know.  We are running Universe 
version 9.6.

John.

In one word - it's IMPOSSIBLE.

Okay, you may be able to achieve what you want, though. The thing is, the output of 
pdf and pcl is an image, Word and xml are structured text. You can't go automatically 
from a structure-free format to a structured format.

I'd investigate ghostscript, and see if you can get it to throw out a text document 
rather than postscript (or feed the postscript through a ps2txt filter), but if your 
original pdf or pcl was of a graphic, then you're stuffed without an ocr filter in 
place.

So, basically, what you're after can be achieved, but without knowing what is IN your 
input files, it's impossible to recommend (or even
guess) what might or might not work.

Cheers,
Wol

Does Anyone know of a way to convert either .pdf or PCL formats to XML and/or WORD 
format that will run under HP-UX.

Thanks in advance.
