[G4] Creating PDF in PageMaker

[John Cappello]

I am using OS 9.2 but I do not have a Acrobat PDF Writer, I do have a  
chooser and other than my regular printer I have  Adobe PS Printer  
What happens is I am trying to take a 11 x 17 doc  in PageMaker 7 and  
convert it to a PDF doc.  I have perviously done this with the same  
doc and no problems.  I can convert other docs, in PM and not have a  
single problem and this is where the problem exists.  Don't know what  
else I can do.  I need to convert so that I can email to the printing  
co. that does my printing.  Any other suggestions?
