<description><![CDATA[#56, Belgian Dude, as with most of your comments, I partly agree, but disagree with much of it.  If a business is large enough to need this, they should purchase it, not just because they could easily afford it and because it's the ethical thing to do, but because organizations like the Business Software Alliance are aggressively auditing and massively fining small businesses which cannot produce receipts for every single piece of software found on all of their computers, no matter how old the software is.  How do they target businesses?  All it takes is a single disgruntled (ex-)employee.  You're wrong that this sort of software is impractical for businesses; for businesses with more than a few employees, this sort of thing is essential.  Many businesses go under from failing to keep track of their expenses and waste.  This is nothing new, it's been a long-standing practice for business copiers.  With the conversion to the paperless office, printing has exploded bigger than ever.  Humans are creatures of habit, it's difficult to get them to give up the wasteful (not just in terms of expense, but environmental and health damage, and insecure) practice of printing on paper.

As #49, Damian, pointed out, the Microsoft XPS format is a vector format.  You can also install a trial version of MS Office (pre-2007), if you can find one, and the Microsoft MDI (raster) virtual printer and viewer will continue to function after the trial.  These, along with various PDF virtual printers, have endless options for data formats, resolution, compression, watermarking, etc.  I have more virtual printers on my computer than I know what to do with.  I find MDI usually produces the smallest files.  You can also find freeware DjVu encoders (I haven't noticed any DjVu virtual printers), but the (very expensive) commercial versions are much better.  DjVu generally outperforms other formats in all respects.]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[Eh. I tried installing this thing on my home print server (running XP). Sadly, the installer hangs while adding the printer...

Ah, well. I guess I'll just lose out on knowing what this "printer" does. I'm not certain it's worth fighting with, based on its description...]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[Hmmm. I wish it had been made clear sooner that installing this offering is allowed for educational, family, or small business needs. I won't be going back to work at 11PM+ to install it. If fitosoft.com had any downloadable manuals/help files, or if I could find anything resembling a competent review anywhere (where the heck is BladedThoth when I need him? 8^), or if anyone posting comments had mentioned whether or not you can monitor stand-alone network printers (#4's cryptic comment notwithstanding)- maybe I would still go in to try it on a PC lab for evaluation and report my findings to others at the college. As it is, I'll wait until next time. ( By the way, Fitosoft only offers a personal license on their website, so I don't know what their target market is.)]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[Continuation of #29...

Unfortunately, after sending their support team my computer's event log reports around noon (EDT) today, I haven't heard back. I've tried rebooting and reinstalling a few times with the same result. I see a few others have had similar issues, but nothing here in the comments from the developers.

If there is ever a fix for this issue please let us know.

Thanks!]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[Hi everyone and GOTD, How about Parental Control software that limits usage of a computer at certain times of the day or night.  I would find this extremely useful.  If anyone knows of any free software it would be appreciated.

Thanks]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[To the <b>Giveaway of the Day Project Team</b> : You state that it is allowed for small business needs.

Care to define what a small business is? 

Do you mean a mom and pop operation or do you mean a bit bigger then that? I would hope the latter because if one needs this kind of a software in a company with a only a hand full of employees, most of them related to each other, then the company won't likely last long.

If you do mean larger then how large exactly? 20 Employees? Howabout less then 50, = European standard? Or less then 100,= American standard?

True one could not give a damn and just use it in any business environment but then I have to question the ethics of a company that is so willing to steal. After all, using software illegally is tantamount to theft.

Using this in a business is neither here nor there. Setting a limit on how much people may or can print is ludicrous in a company. What if they have to urgently print a report that happens to be one page longer then what they are allowed to? Will they be hiring a person to keep track of, and adjust where need be, all the several print allotments? I think not.

In educational fields I can see it happening, even in public accessible situations. E.g. libraries.

Using if for family needs sounds very draconian. How about talking with your family instead of policing them? 

Printing to pdf, jpeg, etc... can be done by lots of products. Some have been mentioned here, the rest can easily be googled. I myself prefer the Paperless Printer for some things and pdf995 for other uses.]]></description>
