It makes a mess, don't do it!

Easier and quicker to re-write it in Word, then use CutePDF to print it to a PDF for distribution.

I use it for the simple facts that, (primarily), it's cross platform and secondly that it's nowhere near as annoying as Word to use. I'm sure MS just love giving basic options stupid names which make no sense or burying options ten layers deep for no good reason.

Openoffice is a nice straight forward programme. It'll obviously take some getting used to if you're mainly familiar with Word though.

If it helps at all, I work in a digital book printing factory.

I have full Acrobat software including a couple of plug-ins for imposing or playing around with pdf files.

If you need help putting it together, just let me know.

What we need it for is to produce a electronic copy of a manual , the only thing is some is in word some is already a pdf file format ,and we need to be able to edit it as the document changes but the end result is a manual in pdf format that can be sent electronicaly or put onto disc

I think thats what we are trying to doas i am confusing myself now

I have works software that will convert PDF to word document. If you want to email me the PDF I will convert it for you and send it back as a word document.
