[ale] Q: PDFing hyperlinks

[John Mills]

Grady -

Thanks. Looks promising. I'll file a battle report. Since I have
StarOffice in Linux and OO in M$Win, I'll see where/if it works.

I have created bookmarked, indexed, hyperlinked PDFs using a set of
[someone else's] LaTeX macros and Adobe's Distiller - there, run in SunOS.  
I must say it worked and the results were very good, but hand-built LaTeX
is a *$^&%!! of an expensive way to write!

Aside - _When_ will Adobe release the Distiller for Linux??
