Vista - Print to PDF options?

We've used Adobe Standard in the Past to install the "Adobe PDF" printer and
then have users print to it to create PDFs.

We moved to Vista and that software no longer works. We do not need the full
version of Acrobat, just the Print To PDF part.

We have the Office SaveAsPDF, but it does not always work and we have other
Apps that need the Ability.

I have 30 laptops and maybe 15 Desktops I need it for, so I'm not looking
for something that is really going to cost me.

Any Suggestions?

Thanks,
Scott<-

CutePDF and PrimoPDF both work, as far as I am aware..

Freeware, works on Vista, very simple and easy to use:

http://www.dopdf.com/

It adds print to PDF as a new printer so you can print anything to PDF from
any application that has 'Print'

doPDF5.3 installs itself as a virtual PDF printer driver so after a
successful installation will appear in your Printers and Faxes list. To
convert to PDF, you just have to print the document to the doPDF free pdf
converter.

Dear Scott Townsend,

Thanks for posting here, and also thank Mark for your assistance.

I suspect that the issue is due to the fact that the Adobe application is
not compatible with Windows Vista. So, besides Mark's suggestions, you may
also contact Adobe to see if there is any update version of the tool for
Windows Vista.

I hope this helps.

Thanks
