You mean your Adobe didn't come with a help file? That's where it tells you
how to create PDFs. ;-)

If you are using MS Publisher 2003, it should have an automatic creation
tool that is installed when you install Adobe Acrobat.

If it's an earlier vesion of Publisher, It's as simple as having the
Publisher page(s) open and go to File | Print and under printer selection,
you would select Adobe PDF.

problem to begin with.  My problem is:  I will always get the monthly
newsletter created in MS Publisher with lots of art/images.  I don't know
how to covert Publisher documents in PDF.  If I could use PDF and just have
a link to the monthly newsletter I would do it.  It would save me allot of
head ache.  I do have Adobe Acrobat 6.0 Professional.  Suggestions on how to
do the conversion of a MS Publisher file to a PDF file would be GREAT, and
then I will not have to deal with subwebs.  Thanks
