do you have acrobat (full version)

I have not used this for a long time but i am sure there is an option for saving as html or publishing for web, or something.

Hi Paul, unfortunately the full acrobat version doesn't have that option. Any other solutions?

The full Adobe suite (not the free reader) should do it. Some browsers and some e-mail programs will also do it. Other than that, .pdf is not a universally supported format.

If you're doing this on a Mac either of those techniques will almost certainly get it right. You'll probably find the Mac versions of other packages do it as well, since Apple rules the artist/publishing/photo/graphics sector.

If you're on a PC you may have to try one of the standard workarounds, like e-mailing it to yourself, or converting it first to .jpg and then to .html, depending on the software you're using.

No luck DC_GUY, I still cannot find a solution. Am doing it on a Windows XP machine. Any idea on software I can use?

My company refused to install it, we're still on 2000. My personal computer is a Macintosh.

Could u please post me the exe for the link you sent, I cannot seem to understand how to get the conversion to work

The links actually change according to whatever server is using the least load.

What you want to do, is when you go to the site I posted, just click on the icon that looks like a floppy or one that says download.

It must depend on what version on acrobat you have. You have to have Adobe Acrobat, not just the reader, to convert files. Give up publisher for web, it sucks. In the mean time, copy the pub file contents to word, save it, and then save it as html. That might work/may need some tweaking.

Try this site for online conversion of pdf to html. I havent tested this, so I dont know how well it will work...
