2. Set Up Properties: Next, configure the properties for how you want your PDF created.


3. Print to Your Virtual Printer: After setting things up, print directly to your newly created virtual printer from either this tool or any third-party software.


4. Close the Printer: Finally, wrap things up by closing the temporary printer instance you just created.

Tips for Installation

A little heads-up: once installed and registered, the component set should be ready to go! But keep in mind that running x86 installers on x64 environments might cause some hiccups or bugs.
