We are trying to use Adobe PDFWriter and it requires a LPT port. The server is a Compaq DL360, does not have a parallel port and there are no slots available to install one. Is there a way to create a logical LPT port?

Thanks!

You mentioned the lack of a slot. Wouldn't that be a physical port?

PDF Writers create a logical printer meaning it looks and acts just like a printer but there is no physical device.

I wonder if it wouldnt be better to install this program on the Workstations?
