    Saving as a PDF file is not a built in feature in P5 /P6, however if you have Adobe Acrobat 5.0 or later (the full version, not just Adobe Acrobat Reader) you can use the Print feature to create PDF files of your project:

    Go to File, Print and choose Adobe PDF or PDFwriter or Acrobat Distiller as your printer and click OK

    Use this free pdf writer. Install first, then print to the setting printer like usual.

    In page setup if you are changing a project name revision box details, why is it changing globally everywhere. how to change only for that particular project.

    Revision box details changing?

    You are taking about change in revision dates, approvals or revision no. or the format itself.

    Font Size and other things won’t global. It will be typical for each and every project.

    Plz clarify, what exactly u mean?

    Say for example i have got 2 EPS (2 different projects), while taking print i am giving details about the project (like name, revision number etc )in header & footer which also gets reflected in other EPS... so every time i take print i have keep on changing header & footer. Hope you understood wat i want to convey.

    for that is there any option

    No way sunil. I have never ever got this problem and hopes, nobody else might had this before.

    R these two projects interlinked together by any means??

    No they are not interrelated...both are separate EPS & separate projects..
    I am not saving as layouts directly i am taking prints after doing whatever changes.is this causing that problem.Is it necessary that you save layouts after you change page setup.

    Even page setup also i have to keep on changing everytime i close & open the project.

    Hi Sunil, I could be wrong but I have experimented with P6 saving layouts with different title blocks etc. and annoyingly, I find that opening another layout (with a different title block) does not bring up the one I want. Maybe there is a amrter way but I am yet to find it!
