Corinne,
If you have Distiller installed, you can take advantage of a feature
called "Watched Folders." This feature is a program that monitors a
specified directory (user-configurable) and distills any PostScript (PS
or PRN) file that you put there. The exact procedure for setting this up
varies between Acrobat 3 and Acrobat 4. Check online Help for details.
