This question is off-topic on this forum. Anyway, here are two solutions:

(1) Set the printer's port to a fixed (disk) file. With Win98, this can be
done from the "Details" tab in the printer's property sheet. Choose "Add
port"/ "Other"/ "Local port"/ when prompted specify the complete file name
you want to print to (with drive letter and path).

(2) If you are writing some software and want to print to a file, use the
lpszOutput menmber of the DOCINFO structure passed to StartDoc(). The
ability to do this depends on your programming language/ compiler/ method
used to print: no problem with C/C++ using GDI calls to print, but you're
out of luck with VB or if using some external object to do the printing.
