DOS Application running under Windows XP
Submitted by clayton rossi on Tue, 2008-03-18 20:25.
Is it possible to make PDFCreator to intercept printing on LPT1 ?? when I'm running and printing a report created by a DOS application which is running under: WindowsXP and of course with PDFCreator running.
The problem is that the DOS Application just gives me 3 (three) options: LPT1; LPT2; LPT3 and doesn't accept any change.
So, I understand, PDFCreator should be configured to intercept LPT1. (I would Like but...).
Note: I'm used to use PDFCreator but directly in windows and it works perfect. There is no problem and I'm strongly recommend it.
Frank,
That is part of the solution, but I have found that if you stop there, all your output from DOS will be a blank page. I posted the rest of the solution here: http://www.pdfforge.org/node/642/3859#comment-3859
