Adam Posted January 6, 2011 Share Posted January 6, 2011 Generally just being able to read/write to one of those formats can be a complex task with PHP, never-mind reading from one and writing to the other. Most likely the reason you can't find anything on Google is because nobody has done it - or at least willing to release the code for free.

PFMaBiSmAd Posted January 6, 2011 Share Posted January 6, 2011 Your best bet would be to get a 'print to pdf' application, there are some free ones (rather than buying the full application from Adobe) and install it on the same computer where you have Publisher installed. Then open the document in Publisher and print to the .pdf format. Assuming you are doing this on the same computer where your web server is installed, you could accomplish the "open the document in Publisher and print to the .pdf format" through a php script.
