I've been working on this for many hours. There is NO 'The printer I want is not listed' only Not finding what looking for which takes me to a windows page about bluetooth! Not helpful.
I deleted old Windows print to pdf after:
Print to pdf appears to work it says its doing it but never puts anything in the file folder I save it to.
I found some solved this with resetting permissions on the Temp files especially if moved. I went through all the command prompts and got the end result as specified. No Joy.
In sharing you have to include Current Creator or something like that not just 'Everyone'. No Joy.
The try to find a problem options doesn't find a problem. .. except won't print to pdf
I believe in a prior version of Windows 10 there was a Printer is not listed option as this post describes. But in my latest update it disappeared.
NEW I found the printer is not listed option.. duh.... If you right click in the printer area the option does not show. However, if you use the upper tab 'Add a printer' does show and I followed every step in this article. It put the Print to PDF printer back in. No joy if print to it now doesn't even give me the save as file explorer which it did before.
I changed all the security settings to allow all the options. No joy.
I then set up the printer to 'save to file' But doing that only has a Postscript? output option. It opened explorer direction, let it save...showed it was saving.... but just as before, no file is actually saved.
Download Nitro Pdf Printer Driver
So have basically run out of options nothing seems to work
Install Adobe Printer
I am going to just print on a regular printer that works fine and then scan it and convert to pdf. Would be easier if Print to PDF worked.
