PM 18.1 vs. PS 23 vs CC 12 - 'Save as PDF' on Windows 7 - 1/8/2012 8:18:59 PM    Brandy redux Posts: 2376 Joined: 2/7/2007 Status: offline Even though the PDF driver in PrintMaster 18.1 has been tweaked to make it more compatible with Windows 7 than earlier versions of PrintMaster, it is very important to keep in mind that the PDF driver which is installed with PrintMaster 18.1 will work correctly ONLY when PrintMaster 18.1 is the last Broderbund/Encore product to be installed on Windows 7. If one of the following Broderbund/Encore products * Print Shop 23 or earlier * PrintMaster 18 or earlier * Calendar Creator 12 or earlier is installed AFTER PrintMaster 18.1, that program will install a Broderbund PDF driver which will overwrite the PrintMaster 18.1 PDF driver. Then, the 'Save as PDF' option will no longer work for any Broderbund/Encore product - because the Broderbund PDF driver which is installed with older Broderbund/Encore products is not compatible with Windows 7. If the 'Save as PDF' option in PrintMaster 18.1 doesn't work even when PrintMaster 18.1 is the last Broderbund/Encore product to be installed on Windows 7, you *might* be able to fix the problem by clicking on the link below http://support.encore.com/technicalsupport/kb.aspx?kb_id=1052&product_id=2644 then following the directions in that Technical Note. To work around any difficulties which occur when the Save as PDF option is selected on Windows 7, I always recommend that users install an alternate PDF driver, then 'Print to PDF' instead of 'Save as PDF' - as is described in this FAQ http://forums.encoreusa.com/tm.asp?m=40318&mpage=1&key=鵾 NOTE: Even though it would be logical to assume that the same PDF driver is installed with Print Shop 23.1, PrintMaster 18.1 and Calendar Creator 12.1, I have not yet been able to confirm that fact. _____________________________ For More Help: Click on the FAQ link at the top of this page Then, click on the All FAQ's button on the next page To contact me by email, please send your message to pine_97@yahoo.com Post #: 1
