Hello everyone.. I have managed to add a virtual printer to the printer list. And now the task is to create a PDF from the added printer. Any suggestions regarding ? Could I get the drivers from somewhere for the printer that creates a PDF of the document ? Thanks -- Palli

Further research into the topic has cleared the picture more. I need to develop a virtual printer that would be available to the user in the print list option of any application like word etc, when the user will select the virtual printer, it will ask for the location to save the file and would then save the file on the specified location as a PDF file. Any suggestions so that I can start working would be highly appreciable. Thanks

Thanks to all of you for your suggestions. Ok..I think I should provide enough details to clear the scenario. I need to create a custom "print to pdf" driver that when installed on a machine would appear in the print dialog of any application. When the users click on the print button, they will have an option to choose this printer. When they choose this printer, it will prompt for a location and then save files there as a PDF file. Hope that helps. Looking forward for your replies. Thanks -- Palli
