texte = Ok, so I've been through the archives and the only thing I could find about converting db content to pdf is SM ASCII solution.My problem is that I need to convert in binary with images and text from the db. Now obviously the images in the db are just relative paths but I think you get where I am going with this.I have thought about using Quark with Applescript to automate making the pdf but I can figure out how I can get the db into Quark in an automated process or maybe perhaps I should put it into MS Word?Essentially the whole process needs to be automated and run in Webcat and somehow produce a pdf with images and text that will change depending on what the user provides as well as embedded fonts.Anyone have any ideas or leftover code they would like to share or any suggestions on where I should go from here?Ugh..what a headache.~Dan ------------------------------------------------------------ Daniel H.
