I have Adobe Acrobat Professional 7.0.0 (I've been unable to upgrade to version 7.0.7) and it saves to PDF/A Draft. But I'm not sure that's a big problem (Adobe is a prime mover in the ISO/TC 171/SC2/ WG7 that created, and is still working on, the format), PROVIDING you configure it correctly. So now you're going to ask me how to configure it correctly. I don't know, because I haven't spent the time going through the ISO Standard. I agree that it's irritating to see how little information Adobe put into the Acrobat 7.0.0 Help file (4 topics, all very short). Best regards, Fred. =============================== Frederic J.
