I would try "byRequest" from Hillary Software.  They can convert spoolfiles
to be PDF or HTML.  They are on the net as well, at

Subject: PDF problems??


This is an updated posting.  Several people responded and asked for
additional information.

We are on HP3000 version 5.5 powerpatch 7.  We can not upgrade.  So we are
stuck at 5.5.  We are trying to get our reports to go to the user either in
PDF of HTML format, or some other format, so that the user can decide
whether to print it or just look at it. We tried PDF and when we transfer it
to the pc to view it it is giving us an error.  The spoolfile is about 500
pages.  So trying to WRQ file transfer it is very long and usually times
out.  We do not want to spend a lot of money on this.  We would spend up to
1000 dollars to get this done.  When I tried HTML it was configured as 4
columns.  Every  4 lines of the report were all the way across the first
line, and so on for the rest of the report.  Unacceptable results.

Help??
