As far as I can tell, the Quicken PDF writer won't permit printing from
any other applications.
Apart from that, I tried it, and the files it creates don't seem to show
up anywhere on my computer. I printed a quick report, and saved it as
"G:temptemp.pdf". A search of my computer shows a shortcut in "recent
documents" that points to that file, but the actual file does not exist.
I don't know where it went, but I'll stick with PDFCreator.
