Is there a Windows XP driver? I see none listed on the web page. What do I use to print poscript now? 

Thanks!

Use the driver included with Windows XP (Use ADD PRINTER).

Actually, the latest driver posted on Adobe's web site as part of the Adobe Universal Windows PostScript Driver Installer 1.0.6 NOW includes the Windows XP version of the PSCRIPT driver. Download and enjoy, enjoy, enjoy, ...

Nope! The best fix is to edit your PPD files to only have Courier and nothing else!

Dov: 

Tried your hack as described in your posting of 11/16/01 as offered to resolve that irritating Dingbats vs. Wingdings Word 2002/XP) fubar. It worked. It seemed a little bit more squirrelly to accomplish on my system. I use a Xerox nee Tektronix Phaser 780 Graphic printer. For whatever reason there were two Xerox/Tektonix  .ppd �s in the stated subdirectory. Ultimately, I had to modify both. But at first I hadn�t noticed the second � it did not have a .ppd extension (or any extension at all) for some reason. In any event, all is well that ends well. 

Comment: This fix is not the thing, IMHO, that most computer users are likely to be able to handle. I sure hope that a more elegant fix is in the works.  

Thanks again.
