Man you guys are smart. To adapt a line from one of my favorite movies, "You
guys are so far above me, I feel like a rope on the Goodyear blimp." ("What
About Bob" w/Bill Murray  A good laugh if you're a little twisted.

This did indeed make a pdf of my jpg. Another question-- is there a way to
set the page size in my scenario? The pdf open into an 8.5x11. This pdf is
going to be sent to a label printer (at my fulfillment center, so I don't
know what it will do or if it's a concern.)

Thanks Ken.
