In the category of software printers, you may have a look at
http://www.docu-track.com/product/pdf-xchange-drivers-api.
It does require the user (or your setup program) to install their
printer, but it's royalty free (up to 100K client installs).

Thanks! That one looks extremely promising!

Dave,

I worked with a chap who produces PDF "glossies" for a UK insurance
company. He uses Bullzip http://www.bullzip.com/products/pdf/info.php

It can be used in any Windows program. It is free for personal and
commercial use up to 10 users.

For more users it is called bioPDF http://www.biopdf.com/ and it costs
$1,499 for a redistribution license.

Thanks Steve,

I'd need a redistribution licence. This is a bit less that Eur 10,000 <g>
but still enough to convince me to look for other options first, but I've
made a note!

We use VeryPDF, but it is pricey. Works really well though.

You can also get the developer's kit from Adobe, but you have to jump
through a lot of hoops.
