    XP/w95 networked. On the w95, one of the installed printers is Acrobat PDFwriter. When I go to it's properties, there is only "General and Detail" tabs.... No "share" tabs. Is there anyway this could be networked shared? Or does anyone know where I can download Acrobat PDFwriter... preferable free??

    There may be a way to set the PDFwriter or Distiller up as network printers but if so, it is a very obscure sort of thing. Or it may not be possible at all since the thing prints to a file and who knows exactly what the internal workings are doing.

    You might have better luck with finding a way to do that (if possible) or if anyone makes a free version by going to a specific Adobe Actobat forum like http://www.adobe.com/support/forums/main.html

    Thanks Newt
    Ran into the same "obscure / jump though hoops" information. Was hoping yourself or fellow posters were aware of any workarounds. Will keep looking for PDFwriter download. For now, continue to use w95 to output .pdf files when needed. Thanks for your response.
