No. In Windows 95/98/Me/NT4, there is a Microsoft driver included on the Windows CDROM. The AdobePS driver is a separate item developed by Adobe, with specific license restrictions, and bug fixes. In Windows 2000/XP, AdobePS doesn't really exist. The installer just installs the Microsoft driver. (Do bear in mind when making INF files that NT-based systems will need a completely different INF. Don't mix up drivers between systems either). Aandi Inston
