Acrobat costs 219.00 at CDW. Not
a big expensive for a great product to bundle with our
software.

Let's see, we charge anywhere from
$25,000 to $125,000 for GEMS in our proposals. We need to be able to do
the electronic pdf files. All of our GEMS clients pretty much need to do
this. Therefore we should be including the pdfwriter driver in with our
distribution. If we can get the driver itself, great. If we have
to buy the entire Acrobat license to get it that's ok too, realizing that the
product in which it is imbedded may cost $250 - $400 or something like
that. Not doing it is costing us more than $250 helping the
customer get the product themselves and helping them install
it.
I
would suggest you tell us (sales) how much the product is, begin including it
immediately as a standard part of our install release, and let the sales
people charge for this in their configuration portions of the proposal.
This is not a big deal. Sales will charge whatever you tell us for the
product cost to get it into our install. Done.

it might be worth discussing with the
sales team if you should configure the cost of Acrobat into your RFP's with
all the requests we are getting to pint the SOVC in pdf format... unless we
decide to include the PDF writer into gems
just a thought
