Jeff,

txt2pdf does this. We have a job that runs that:
1. checks a pseudo device we have setup for any spoolfiles that are on the device with an PRI >0
2. if it finds a spoolfile, we convert it to pdf and move it to a server
3  send an e-mail to the streamedby variable telling them the pdf doc is ready on the server.
4. alters the priority to 0 to mark it processed


We've been using it for a couple years, and it works great.... of course, once we got the bugs worked out....

what's cool is if someone delete the file, we just adjust the pri to something greater than 0 and it gets reprocessed.

we also have an emailpdf cmdfile that will convert the spoofile to a pdf doc and e-mail it as an attachment.
