There are others -- I use Gaaiho, which installed as part of Nuance's PDF Pro, which is a terrific and affordable PDF editing program. I don't know if Gaaiho is available as a stand-alone product. But there are others - CutePDF is one, PDF995 (the ads show up onscreen but not on the printout -- pay the $9.95 and the ads disappear for good). I'm sure there are other free ones. I didn't even know Microsoft had finally included a PDF printer. :-) -- David H.
