I am not sure of your exact problem, but here is a solution -

Download CutePDF @

http://www.cutepdf.com/Products/CutePDF/writer.asp

It will install itself to be a "printer" - then just print anything to this ghost printer, and voila - you have a pdf.

Have you considered buying a mac? No? OK, so you could try pdfcreator . It's free, and accepts line commands, as well as VBA scripts callouts. And does a cool thing: groupes several pages of printing in only one pdf document. I use it to generate reports from several different excell sheets.

You need to install the " Microsoft Save as PDF" Add-in for MS Office 2007
