Printing to a file in windows98

Question

I have an old medical equipment, with a software which works only with windows98, no update available, my problem is i can't find a printer compatible with win98, also the software prints only on parallel port (LPT),

So now am looking for some trick to print into a file (image, pdf, ...) using a virtual printer or anything, so any help or idea will be appreaciated !

Answer 1

Try CutePDF. CutePDF Writer installs itself as a "printer subsystem".

You can check this CutePDF FAQ for more details.

Answer 2

PDF995 would work great for tyour situation since it installs a printerd and anything sent to it is automatically converted to a PDF.

Answer 3

I've been using GhostScript (which includes GhostPDF) for several years. Setup is potentially easy.
