anyone know of a tested legal free PDF printer driver?

My Adobe does not work with the 64 bit version of 7.

 
I've been using PDFCreator but I'm disappointed by version 1. It tries to install a toolbar that uses SearchSetupRes409.dll. Most anti-virus and anti-spyware programs pick this up as spyware and block it. It you allow the toolbar to be installed and the dll is blocked, PDFCreator won't work.

To make matters worse, PDFCreator asks twice to install it. Once as separate form and once again in the options form. If you don't deselect both it will install the toolbar.

Other that that, PDFCreator works very well. It allows me to rename and combine files.

The other one that I was looking into was PrimoPDF but I haven't had a chance, yet.

I'm using CutePDF Writer and it seems to work fine. I've tried BullZip on XP which gives combine and other features, but I haven't tried to use that on Win7x64 yet.
