Printer installation problems after upgrade

Hi, I am looking for support to install printer. 

I just upgraded to 1.3.2 

I first uninstalled previous version, did a reboot and then installed the new version.

This produced the following error:
During the printer installation errors have occured. A detailed description can be found in the file "SetupLog.txt" in application path.

When trying to print from applications as I normally did with previous versions, there is no pdfcreator printer listed under printers. .

 

My OS is Windows 2000

The Setup log reads:

Thanks and best regards

 

 

Hi,

 

PDFCreator 1.3.x is not compatible with Win2K, you will need to stick to version 1.2.3.

 

regards,
