Thanks for the help... Here is some of the replies I have recieved. Please read question two again, I have clarified what I am trying to do. 1. In Mutt is there away to change the name of the attachment you would be sending? Using sendmail I would use the following syntax: uuecode /tmp/dave.dat Eng_test.wri | mailx -s "Test Mail" $Mail301 QUESTION 1 Summary "Thanks Jay Lessert" The simple-minded way (often the best!) would be: ln -s /tmp/dave.dat /tmp/Eng_test.wri mutt -a /tmp/Eng_test.wri -s "Test Mail" $Mail301 < /dev/null rm tmp/Eng_test.wri 2. I have been assigned to take a text file and merge it with a pdf or postscipt file and then send to a printer or email? I am not sure I was too clear on what I was trying to achieve so I will try to explain a little more. We print Invoices on a pre-printed forms on a dot matrix printer. I would like to create the overlay by scanning it in and saving as a pdf or PS file, then taking the text file for the data and overlaying them together. I believe I had stated merging them which most thought of appending to the file. So what I wish to accomplish is having an overlay file and a a text file and putting them together as one, then emailing or printing on a laser printer. This must be done in UNIX not Adode, since there will be alot of Invoices printed. I would like to script it. QUESTION 2 Summary I haven't had any answers that will work yet, but I have been pointed at a few packages that will do conversions. a2ps, ghostscript, and PSUtils Any other suggestion on this issue would be welcome. Thanks Again to all that have replied to my questions.
