Converting MSWord Docs to PDF

[melv@awc.edu]

Hello,

this is my first message sent to the python-list, so
forgive any irregularities.

is it possible to convert MSword docs into PDF format?
i told my future employer that i could, because i knew
of the COM scripting abilites that activePython had.
and i knew there was modules for PDF creation such as
reportlabs.

thanks

Melv
