Has anyone been able to get Primopdf for work in a Metaframe environment? -
There are a couple of threads on their support forums that suggest that the
product will not work reliably on Metaframe. So far I have had similar
issues with the program on Metaframe.
Conversely is there a way to make CutePDF from http://www.acrosoftware.com/
more efficient on Metaframe. It works fine but the resulting PDF files it
creates are nearly three times the size that Adobe acrobat creates (primo
files are slightly larger that Adobe PDFs created from the same original
doc).
Both PrimoPDF and CutePDF use ghostscript for the underlying PDF creation so
I'm at a loss to understand why there is such a discrepancy between the size
of the PDF files output by each program - for example from one 3150k word
file Primo produced a 706k PDF while Cute resulted in a 1250k file. Both
printed and viewed on the screen it was impossible to distinguish between
these two PDFs

You can also get a free pdf writer/printer at http://www.primopdf.com/
it works great on citrix (you might have to give the users group modify
permissions on the install dir - it writes its temp files there)
