To Install a PostScript Printer Driver
1. From the Start menu, select Settings > Printers
2. The Printers window will pop up, displaying an icon for each of the printer drivers that you have installed. Double Click on the icon for Add Printer.
3. When the Add Printer Wizard window pops-up, click on Next.
4. Select any color PS printer driver. Click on Next.
5. From the list of ports displayed, select: File: Create a file on disk. Click on Next.
6. Enter a name for this printer such as ps2file and select whether to use this printer as the default (not recommended). Click on Next.
7. There is no need to print a test page. Click on Finish.
8. Test by 'printing' a file to the printer named ps2file and a dialog should appear automatically asking you to provide a name for the file. Check to see that the target directory contains the file after completing this test.
Tip
Non-PostScript fonts should be embedded in the PostScript or PDF file. These and other options are generally defined in your printer driver settings. Embedding Type 1 and TrueType fonts ensures that they are not outlined, simulated or substituted in the source file, and gives PDF FLY the best chance to correctly convert the text to the target format. > More information on font handling.
