Hi, Guys,
I have downloaded and installed a free PDF converter pdf4free.exe. It is designed for Windows and that is where I installed it.
But, it also works in Ubuntu! How is that possible? Basically any file, word processor text or spreadsheet in OpenOffice and scans in jpg, gif etc., can be converted to pdf at printing stage. Clicking on print brings up a "PDF printer" choice and if used in Ubuntu it files the pdf file in /home/pdf folder.
Absolutely perfect, but the application is not in Ubuntu but in Windows SP.
Out of curiosity, how is this possible?
Many thanks,
Alex
