It's perfect, thanks. I've suffered many a defective soft printer (including CutePDF and PDF995, neither of which handled all the files properly). docPrint Pro worked great, but its printer driver isn't Windows 10 compatible. After a few tries -- including files with embedded graphics -- Bullzip does the job. The results are clean and economical. Thanks to you and the other person who recommended it.
