I have found several but either they error, or they put a watermark or they just dont work.

Found an error that some PDF printer drivers dont like this line.
Printer.PaperBin = printDlg.PaperBin ' this line causes a 380 error with some PDF printer drivers
Anyway, I found this one works with no watermarks, doPDF 8.

Although it is installed the PDF printer, I suppose Avast halted the install of the 'additional bagage'
I just tested PDF creator in my program and it does work ok, like doPDF 8..

Sorry about the malware. I'm glad Avast caught it. I have an older version that I've never had an issue with. But I definitely won't be recommending it anymore if it ships with malware.
Good to know.

Apparently it is just the installer.
Warning: The PDFCreator installer is bundled with OpenCandy. See our information page here for more details.
I verified PDF24, PDFCreator, Bullzip, doPDF8 all work ok.
PDF24, takes you to an insecure site according to Chrome browser.

I hate the way some of this freeware is bundled with crap like OpenCandy. It makes me not want to use any of it. The freeware/shareware producers are just harming their own products by doing this.
I won't upgrade ImgBurn for the same reason. I use an old version where the installer doesn't contain malware.

I have used Bullzip with W7 with no problems. My Adobe Standard also works well for printing to .pdf, although it defaults to color and I always have to go to the menu and choose black and white.
