Convert Aldus pm5 doc to pdf

[Iggy347]

Hi all
I am attempting to convert a *.pm5 document created in Aldus Pagemaker 5.0 (old as the hills) I would like to get it into pdf format. I checked adobe's knowledge base but no luck......checked the microsoft base too....i figured that maybe they made a converter.......still no luck. Anyone have any ideas?

Presumably you still have PM5 on your computer and can therefore open the PM file? If so, and you also have Distiller on the computer, open the PM file, and go to the Print menu, choose Distiller as your printer, and create the PDF as you would from any other PM doc.
