There are a few of us here who can do the conversion for you (myself included), if you get really stuck.

Brad,

Are you able to convert a file from PM 6.5 to a PDF and or WORD for me?

I do not have any software so it would be most helpful. If you are able, please dm me at lauraftaylor2079@gmail.com
