Molly,
The only thing you should have to do, is open the newsletter in MS Publisher, then print it to the
Adobe Printer (PDF generator). All content within the Publisher document should automatically be
included in the finished PDF document.

The reason I asked so many questions about this because I went to the "help" files of Adobe Acrobat, and the help files are very limited in how to work with something in Adobe. I even bought a Adobe Acrobat 6 PDF bible, and it was very limited on information. It states in the book that converting publisher documents is more difficult to convert files from publisher to pdf. > > Tell me one more thing.............for images/clip art, I can't seem to get a clear answer on this question......how does the conversion work with images/clipart. Once I covert the files over to pdf, will I have to add the art/images to those documents again, or will they be converted along wtih the text? > -- > mollybigd > > > "wp" wrote: > > > Molly, > > After you create/convert to pdf, import it into your web and simply link to it.
