Anyway I made the Broderbund creator settings mimick the PCL6 settings. I created the project while using Broderbund creator but the project was saved as .nws What did I do wrong?

I created the project while using Broderbund creator but the project was saved as .nws What did I do wrong? You didn't create a PDF. You only switched your default printer to the Broderbund PDF Creator. You should either: File> Save As PDF or File> Print... and since the default printer is the Broderbund PDF Creator, the print command will generate a PDF. Open the PDF in Adobe Reader and make multiple prints. My Broderbund PDF Creator no longer works. It's not compatible with 64 bit operating system. So I use cutePDF instead. i.e. I switch my default printer to cutePDF before I start designing my project and I print my project to the cutePDF printer. Back in post #17, I suggested you get the free download of cutePDF if the Broderbund PDF writer gave you any trouble. < Message edited by ellengard -- 7/11/2013 10:52:27 AM > (in reply to TLMimi) Post #: 22

When I say page, I mean full 8.5x11 sheet, not a half-fold card kind of thing. Print 50 copies of JPG(1) via Windows Print Wizard. Reinsert the pile and print 50 copies of JPG(2 or 3 or 4) on the back. Printing a JPG from Windows Print Wizard is ultra fast - perhaps only a minute before the first print comes out.

This time the print file is 44.8mb. I don't have my printer turned on so I was able to cancel the document. (in reply to ellengard) Post #: 24
