I wanted to drop you a line thanking you for your help getting SPLTOOL up and running. By using your tool and an article you wrote in March 2000's Midrange Computing, I was able to create an application that monitors an output queue and distributes spoolfiles in PDF & HTML format onto my NT server. With your PDF engine at its core, this program will save us many dollars in paper and printer costs, as well as providing a secure and dependable report archival system. Thanks for your ideas and your programs! - Patrick Shrader
