picture this:
i have Acrobat 8 Pro installed under OSX, so i have a PDF 8.0 printer (i.e., i can print to PDF from any program running within OSX. whenever i choose PDF 8.0 as the destination printer, and click Print button, i'll get a window prompting me to choose the destination folder where the PDF file will be created)
now i turn on OSX's Printer Sharing
and under Windows XP running in Parallels, i installed Bonjour and then add this PDF 8.0 shared printer.
then of course i tried to print some document from within Windows using this printer. but this doesn't work, and i don't know why.
so i'm wondering if it's even possible to do that?
PS: interesting thing is, when i open Printer & Fax in OSX's System Preferences, i see the jobs (sent from Windows) being queued. i think one possible problem is that when i try to print from within Windows, the "printer" doesn't know where to print to. if i could find a way to set a default print location (i.e., a folder where the PDF files will be created) then this'll probably work?
any idea?
