We are looking at ways to create high volume reports for printing and

thinking that Adobe Acrobat writer may be able to do it. Does anyone
have any experience with creating a template - either PostScript of PDF?
I'd like something that would be easy for a user to create a template
with - so that a programmer isn't needed to create every template. Any
thoughts?

Chris,
I'm not sure what you mean by "high volume reports", nor whether this is 
a windows (reference to the Adobe Acrobat Writer) or Linux job, but why 
not have the users create the templates in a report writer that they are 
familiar with (e.g. Crystal, in windows) and just print to PDF? If you 
are really talking high volume, there are commercial document management 
systems that take care or naming, storing and retrieving the reports. 
Prices seem to be 10,000ドル+.
