Hello everyone,

I'm trying to create a Virtual PDF Printer that prints out documents in a PDF format using the Ghostscript Library. I know how to convert PS to PDF, but I'm stuck on how to create a Printer Driver to generate that postscript. Has anyone got any idea's?

Thanks.

And you are dead set against using PurePDF?

Good question haha. I'm really interested in creating a PDF converter, and would like to. I'm very much inspired by PDFCreator, and want to give it a shot.

Thanks.

If you want go to the following adress http://www.autoitscript.com/forum/index ... PDFCREATOR
You have an example of using PDFCREATOR like a com object and after you have only to translate in Purebasic with COMATE OBJECT http://www.purebasic.fr/english/viewtopic.php?t=33983 from SROD
