It works great. I recently came across the PDFTK, for a similar task. I can recommend it, as well. Linux has the print to PDF/PS (PDF being a cut-down postscript) options, as well; plus OpenOffice prints to PDF natively.

Pdftk is the kind of thing I was looking for but I ran across PDFCreator first. Thanks, Gappy, that’s good to know. Pdftk is the kind of thing I was looking for but I ran across PDFCreator first.

It merges, splits, rotates, repairs etc. I used it. Recommended. John,
