create pdf files

Unless you already have a postscript printer driver installed, follow these instructions. Even if you already have one, you may add another one for pdf purpose only. You don’t need to have the actual printer.

  1. Click Start -> Settings->Printers or double click My Computer->Printer. Then your printer folder will show up.
  2. Double click Add Printer
  3. In Windows 98, Add Printer Wizard window will pop up. (Windows 95 should have something similar.) Click Next.
  4. Choose Local printer. Click Next.
  5. Choose a postscript printer driver.  How? Choose one with “PS” or “PostScript“  attached to its name. It is a good idea to choose a color postscript printer because you might want to make a colorful PDF file. For example, HP PaintJet XL300 Postscript will do the job. I myself use to use Tektronix Phaser 220i. (There is no “PS” or “PostScript” in it, but this driver helped me first discover how to make postscript files from windows applications; however, the unprintable area for  printer is quite large.)
  6. However, I recommend Tektronix Phaser 300i. It doesn’t have a large unprintable area like Tektronix Phaser 220i does
