PDF Creation with Adobe Acrobat 5

[harry300873]

Hello, I´m running Metaframe XP 1.0 Sp3/FR3 and W2k SP4!!

I have a lot of problems as described in other forums concerning SP4 :-(( but the biggest proble is, that client printing is not working anymore. I had Adobe Acrobat 5.0 installed on all clients usi it to create PDF-files. Is there an other way to create PRD-files? Should I Install Adobe Acrobat on the citrix-server?

thanx for advise

We have Acrobat 5.0 installed on 1 of our terminal servers w/ the PDFWriter without any problems. On the remaining 6 terminal servers, we use win2pdf (

the pdfwriter. They offer a version strickly for terminal servers and their pricing/licensing is a lot cheaper than Adobe.

Is there a separate driver for win2pdf installed or do you use UPD?

We have it installed on each terminal server. It works the same way Acrobat PDFWriter works in that you just select Win2PDF as your printer when you want to create your PDF file and choose the location where you want to save it. We're pushing out full desktops to all users. I have not tested win2pdf with the UPD driver since it's just for the terminal server and not the client.
