I've found an easy way to convert spool files into a PDF format that I'd like to share.

Follow these steps:

1.Install PDF writer on your machine.
2. Create the printer device from your Client Access/Express/HOD.
3. Choose ACROBAT DISTILLER from you printer session.

After you complete these steps you can easily convert your spool files into PDFs with the usual print command from command line. I.e. Dev (PDF).
