Hi Ted / Peter
I have had no problems with print2pdf as was recommended on this very
list.
To avoid the sort of problems picking printers I just have a print to
PDF entry on the menus.

Hi Ted,
I checked out some PDF printer drivers a while ago, including Expert
PDF, PDF995, PDF redirect,Virtual PDF and Win2PDF and the only one that
seemed to work reliably for me was the virtualPDF. Been using that now
for over a year with no problems. Not sure if other people have had
other results with PDF995. Got my Virtual PDF from
