I'm running into an issue when trying to set up a virtual PS printer for simplified Chinese. I get a "severe" error that reads: "The ppd language level must be 2 or greater." I realize that this means I have a PS 1.0 PPD and am trying to use the latest PS driver for Win2K with it - which is the problem.

The specific PPD I'm trying to use is Fz_fh31.ppd. Info:

Adobe Systems PostScript(R) Printer Description File
For "AGFA_Avantra36" version 52.3
Date: 04/18/99

Is there a specific driver I should be using to use this PPD on Win2K?

Thoughts much appreciated. I don't wade in here much, as most of my work so far has been English with some Japanese and German thrown in. I'm not new to PS issues, but I frankly don't know where to look for an optimal PS driver for this PPD.

Thanks!

Bill
