PDO to PDF for Mac

I’m sure this has come up but does anyone know anyway to convert a PDO to PDF for those of us on Mac? Without doing or downloading a bunch of extra stuff?
Thanks in advance
Doug

I'd like to know the same answer Doug. I have had some luck with the pdotools app.

There are two answers to this --


Find a friend to Print to PDF
or get another computer.


I know it isn't the answer you were looking for, but I think it is still correct

Is this for a handful of files, or for a whole bunch of them?

If for a handful, I suspect that some here could help offline, using email to transfer the files back and forth.

There is an online converter for .pdo to .pdf at:

PDO Converter (Online & Free) - JeDok.com

Might be useful if you only have a small number of files.

Regards,

Charlie

Maybe...

I also have a Mac, and unlike many, I am not a congregant of either PC or OS. I use tools without the religious commitment.

I also have a couple of PCs. This isn't a great solution, but I have an old PC laptop that I loaded Pepakura on it. I email the pdo's from my Mac, with the stronger paint programs, to the PC with the unfolding program, then after opening them, I email the opened file back to the Mac.

I will be looking for that APP just suggested in the earlier thread. I never heard of it but I am open to learn. If that doesn't work, a cheap PC will handle Pepakura and permit PDF'ing the pdo. It not a perfect solution for you, but an economical; permitting you the best of both worlds....
