PDF guru needed

We are setting up a sheet music website. For printing convenience, we intend to convert noteworthy files to pdf ones. Please read this: http://www.noteworthysoftware.com/c...tip6.htm#export

If you understand the above "Method for Exporting *.nwc Files to the *.pdf (Adobe) Format" and have the tools to do that, please consider helping us out. We can't afford to pay you but in return, we can still offer you a subdomain website and unlimited POP3 email accounts. Sorry, this isn't much I guess but please help us.

Pls either email me at animemusic@hotmail.com or post a reply with your contact info. Thanks a lot!

Are you using Acrobat 4.0? If so, simply "print" the noteworthy file with the Acrobat Distiller (to whatever directory you have selected). It creates the PDF file.

Some folks also print/convert using the Adobe PDFWriter. I have found it to be less robust and to occasionally run into problems, however.

Someone on the forum found this great freeware pdf program at http://www.ctrlp.com. Works slick as a pin if you do not have Adobe Acrobat.

Hope that helps.

For those who don't own Adobe Acrobat (the full version, not just the reader), the above user tip is free and reliable. But the "free" software from ctrlp.com is apparently intended for their own customers who need to submit files to them in that format.

The bottom line is that it's not necessary to recruit other NWC users to make PDF files. It's a "do it yourself" job.

I know it's supposed to be easy to convert. I've tried but somehow always got an error message. Anyway, Fred Nachbaur has kindly offered to help out.
