Note:  This option can be used if you do not have Adobe Acrobat's PDFWriter/Distiller installed. This option is not recommended because the file created is unnecessarily large.

1. Create document in WordPerfect
2. Choose File > Publish to PDF....
3. In the Publish to file dialog box, choose a file location and file name.
   (Remember the file location and file name as you will need to browse to find this file when you electronically file the document in CM/ECF.)
