You will need a third party program to do it. Here's my canned response.

You will need a program to convert the file to a pdf format. There is of
course Adobe Acrobat but its a bit on the spendy side for most folks at $250
or higher. I had the need to create pdf files some 5 years ago and did some
trials on freeware, shareware and commercial programs (excluding Adobe
Acrobat). The winner for me was/is the commercial program PDF-XChange that
goes for ~$40 US.

PC Magazine, Aug 5 issue compares 11 pdf programs with PDF-XChange sharing a
three way tie for a 4 star rating and came in first of the three for price.

You can read the article at:

1. Converting publisher files to PDF with Adobe Acrobat

Hi there,

Just designed a CD insert for my band in MS Publisher that is 360mm x
120mm, which with three folds will fit into the front of  a standard CD
jewel case. I want to save it as a PDF file so that I can e-mail it to
the band and the printers for approval before they go with the final
print run. Unfortunately, everytime I create the PDF file, Acrobat
Distiller crops the document and saves it over two pages (as it is
wider than the typical landscape A4 document).

Can anybody help me to save it on one page as one complete PDF document
- as it appears in Publisher - with the ability to scroll across the
page to view it.

Regards

WAL

7. linking Adobe Acrobat files

I have recently upgraded from Publisher 2000 to Publisher 2003. While I can insert an embedded link to an Adobe Acrobat file in my Publisher document, and the link works fine in Publisher, when I go to Web Preview, or upload the site and try it on-line, the links do not open the PDF file. My mouse changes to a hand /finger, indicating there is a link there, but it does not function. In Pub 2000, I used to add a Hyperlink to the icon to make it function and open the file, but this doesn't work in Puib 2003. How can I have a PDF file accessible to my web site customers?
