Print to File Adobe Acrobat

[racerxfactor]

Hi, I was wondering how install a generic printer with adobe acrobat. I hear there's a way you can print something to pdf i.e. shipping label.

I have acrobat pro and don't know how to figure it out . I hear there's other programs out there so I'm taking a shot in the dark as to which I can be using. Any suggestions or comments would help. Thank you

I believe if you have Pro, it installed a PDF printer - look in your printers folder.

it's not there. would having x64 make any difference. there was at some point in the installation where it said it didn't install the printer drivers...

Yes, printer drivers have to be 64-bit if you have Windows x64, and it doesn't look like Adobe software has 64-bit printer drivers yet. You can still create PDFs from withing Acrobat, but you can't simply print to the PDF printer.

Some people have come up with workarounds. See this for one example: http://www.planetamd64.com/index.php?showtopic=4814

good free software would be PDFcreator. google it or get it from sourceforge.net
if you want your PDFs to be digitally signed and all, this program wont do it. but you can print to file with this freeware

CutePDF is also free and it works in XP 64. It doesn't look like PDFcreator does.
