I have an article I had published in a magazine. Rather that copy/paste it, I would like to produce it in a link form, so that if anyone wants to read it, they can, simply by clicking the link. This is where I am stumped. I know nothing about turning such as this into a PDF file, so, if anyone is prepared to help, then make it easy please.

I don't know if this is any help Cuba Arch, looked at the link in your post and embarked on setting this up, something I wouldn't dared to have done before, anyway I've done it in hopefully you will be able to read it later today, thanks. Postman, would have done your tip if this hadn't worked, thanks to you too. |

May not be a solution for you, but I scan printed out documents at work and the result is a .pdf. (This is on a Ricoh fax / photocopier.)

Now that's a word I haven't used for years. "WORK". At my age you've almost forgotten what that was, ha ha. Oddly enough though I still like to get up at 6.20am, the time I would rise when at work (prior retirement) and frequently say at 9.45, it's tea break time.

Oddly enough though I still like to get up at 6.20am, the time I would rise when at work Cuba it's at moments like this I wonder about the sanity of some pensioners. I "still" wake up at about 6:45 and I'm buggered if I like it. I would prefer to wake up at 10:00 but years of early rising has set a trend. Cuba why the hell do you "like" getting up at 6:20? My retirement day drags on and on as I try to think of ways to make it interesting without opening a bottle. Cuba why do you like wakening so early and what do you do at that time that couldn't be done satisfactorily 4 hours later? Some peeps haven't read the thesis of retirement and how to enjoy it.  |

As for what do I do in the early hours. The priority for me is to surf and explore without interruptions.
It would be difficult to say what is best for me as there is so much:-
opening the door last thing at night, and hearing the sea gulls,
watching the tourists parade back and forth on the promenade,
my garden and the people who stop, look and photograph my front garden, keeping it looking good,
surfing
writing to the papers, previously as a grumpy old man, but now mellowed,
the views all around
creating items out of things found on the beach,
and tv, (not films)
and bed by 10.30 at the latest.

Your right it is the body clock i've been retired 5 years and still get up between 04:00 - 05:00 which was the time i had to get up for work.

Apparently then, my body clock is broken. After all of those years of rising at 6.30am. I'm now usually still catching some Zzzzzzz's at 7.45. But then of course, unlike old Smudger, I go to bed with a clear conscience!  |
