Just a note on the Acrobat information.  I have recently installed a free
version of Win2PDF from http://www.win2pdf.com.  It will run only on Windows
2000 or Windows NT platforms (I believe there is a Mac version also).  It
converts files easily to PDF format by "printing" a document to the Win2PDF
program.  The freeware adds a page to end of your document referring to the
above website.  There is a "pro" version that can be purchased, but I am not
familiar with what all it can do.

This may be a solution to those who have occasional need of creating PDF
documents.

Dr. Wang has a good suggestion.  The Help Desk recently purchased licenses
for the full version of Adobe Acrobat and can now install the full version
of Acrobat upon request.  For the time being we are able to absorb the cost
of these installations through centralized funding for software, so there is
no cost to the department.  However, I want to make it clear that the
software is not "free" to the University so we would like to install it only
where it is honestly needed.

If you need the full version of Acrobat installed on your computer, please
e-mail [log in to unmask]  Be sure to include the UTC tag number of the
computer.

Subject: [UTCSTAFF] Adobe Acrobat for $60


I just learned from the Teaching Resource Center that the full version of
Adobe Acrobat, which allows us to read and write pdf files, costs only $60
or so.  It will be a great tool for us to publish documents on the web.
Since we are updating the computers with the Lupton fund, I wonder if it is
possible to add this software to the package, and how many of our
colleagues are interested?
