    Read a ".prn" file?

    I have created a .prn file, using the "PrintToFile" argument of Word's PrintOut method. Is there any way to read back this "prn" file, preferably as a "doc" file?

    a prn file will have been created according to the specs of your default printer and is not recoverable as a Word doc.

    Actually, technically, if you have the full specs of your printer you COULD recover it if you had a few weeks to devote to it.
