Hi all,

I need a write a "generic" printer driver. something like the pdf driver
or postscript driver.
Basically, when user select print, my "generic" driver will be listed a one
of the printer drivers.

What my driver do is to convert the file to someother format.

How should I proceed to do. any samples around?

Thanks
