Lots of them, all with different capabilities. I have four different ones installed on this machine alone :-) PDFCreator - http://sourceforge.net/projects/pdfcreator DoPDF - http://www.dopdf.com Polestar Virtual Printer - http://www.polestarsoft.com/ and my own creation. MakePDF - a front end to Ghostcript which you can use as a GUI or CLI application. Here's where it gets ON TOPIC again. I use this one to print reports to PDF with output file names created on the fly. It means I can set up a loop to create a couple of thousand PDF statements stored in currentapplication.path & "Statements" with names like "Statement" & CLientNumber & ".pdf". Once they are created, I can email them out using calls to Blat.dll, pulling the email address and CustomerNumber in a loop and funding the appropriate PDF to attach. You will find MakePDF and an example of using it with Access on my website http://www.lexacorp.com.pg - under Downloads. -- Stuart On 9 Aug 2009 at 22:43, Max Wanadoo wrote: > Hi guys, > > Definitely OT but I have just tried to install my PDF Printer (you know, > where it thinks it is a printer driver and appears in the printer list but > displays content as a PDF where you can view/save it). > > Anyway, I purchased one some time back and just tried to install it on my > x64 system but no go.
