Hello. try this: 1. At the beginning of each text file, prepend: .nr PO 1.0i .nr LL 6.5i .nr ps 12 .nr VS 12 .ds CH .ds CF .nf 2. At the end of the text file put: .fi 3. For each text file, run: groff -ms -Tps <text file name> > <filename.ps> where the names in angle brackets are names you substitute for the source and destination files. 4. Then, run ps2pdf <filename.ps> <filename.pdf> You may not need steps 1 and 2, but they will do things like give you a nice margin on the top, bottom and sides, as well as set a good sized type face and type size. Hope that helps. -Brian On Sep 17, 7:21pm, Kirk Reiser wrote: } Subject: anything that converts txt to pdf? } Hi folks: I was wanting to know if anyone knows of a utility to } convert text files into pdf?
