Hi all,

I love the OSX print to pdf feature - I use it all the time.

I was recently forced back to the dark-side by etax (still waiting for the
Mac version!) and really missed the feature when using Windows XP (under
parallels)

When my printing from etax suddenly went bad (printing as pale cyan - hard
to read!) I decided to look a bit harder and discovered CutePDF:

<http://www.cutepdf.com/Products/CutePDF/Writer.asp>

It all installed very easily in Windows - I had overlooked the
"Requires PS2PDF converter such as Ghostscript (recommended)" requirement -
but it offered to go and fetch it from CutePDF's website and now it all
works very well.

I save the pdfs in a folder shared between Windows & OSX and just review
them with quicklook (or Preview) - but, when I wanted a printed copy, the
problem document printed just fine to pdf and the pdf printed fine under OSX
- so problem solved.


I am sure there are probably many other ways to do this - but for any of you
that run Windows, I can highly recommend CutePDF as an easy way to print to
pdf.


Cheers


Neil
