Hi,
sorry for the trouble; it seems to be a problem with getting information on the installed printer ports on your system. Please open "print management" and send us a screenshot of the list of ports installed on your system and we will look into the issue.
Best regards
Robin
his is actually a .NET issue. What I found to get this to work was - close that dialogue box and from a command prompt with elevated permissions.
Navigate to folder
C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework64\v2.0.50727
and run ldr64 set64
and run PDF Creator again

Hi,
I am having the same problem with windows 11, fresh install.
Can you please help?
I am encountering the same issue after trying to reinstall and troubleshoot the problem. Would I be able to have that emailed to me as well?
Thanks,
Jason
