Try pdfcamp/pdfwriter available from: http://www.verypdf.com/pdfcamp/pdfcamp.htm It costs just USD 30/- and a free download for testing/evaluating is available. PDFcamp(pdf writer) is the quick and easy PDF creation software that converts any type of printable Windows document, including DOC, XLS, PPT, TXT and even HTML, to a universally accepted PDF (Portable Document Format) file with the click of a button. This gives users a convenient and simple way to share any type of Windows document.

Documentation_about_'Unix_for_librarians'

Hi everybody, Sorry for the cross-posting My name is Carlos Vilchez-Roman, head of the Automation Office of the Universidad Nacional Mayor de San Marcos (UNMSM) Library university, located in Lima, Peru. I am writing you for the following: the next month Ill be giving a training course called UNIX for librarians. I think this course will be very helpful because our ILS is running on a UNIX Tru64 box. Sadly theres no material available in Spanish about this topic. I have only found a book titled UNIX and libraries and an article published in Computers in Libraries, 16 (10), 34-36. In Amazon.com the book is out of print (I only work with Amazon. They give me a guarantee). For that reason Id ask you if you know a website (or PDF files) where I can get documentarion about training courses on UNIX and librarians. Any information would be appreciated. Thanks for your time.
