Manage updates with the Download AppCNET Editors' review
Better than many free PDF creators out there, BullZip PDF Printer installs quickly and smoothly as a virtual printer, then gives you total control. Before finalizing your PDF, Bullzip will let you name the file and set the standard of quality; add an author note and keywords; stamp a watermark; merge with an existing PDF file; and set an encrypted password. Not too shabby, and neither were our PDFs.

"Loaded a bunch of programs but I never found the PDF'er"
Version: PDF Printer 4.0.0.463
Pros
never found the pros
Cons
It loaded a bunch of programs that wanted to abscond my computer's eco-system, running checks then requiring the purchase of a "fix" and placing those "Fixes" on my desktop, attempting to change my brouser EVEN THOUGH the software promised it would not do that. I never found the PDF program to use.

"Good if you like SPAMWARE"
Version: PDF Printer 4.0.0.463
Pros
PDF printing works as advertised
Cons
This software comes packaged with no less than four versions of spamware that will kill your computer performance. I recommend you avoid downloading from CNET who want to comb through your browser history with unrelated junk software and memorize your "user profile" for their marketing department manipulation.
It is a crying shame that CNET is doing these underhanded practices. -
"Free virus included!"
Version: PDF Printer 4.0.0.463
Pros
Absolutely none, unless you want the joy of dealing with spyware that exposes your personal information.
Cons
Tried to install virus filled toolbar and other garbage. Antivirus software wouldn't allow it to be installed.
Summary
How did this get approval from cnet with so many viruses and spyware crap attached? I downloaded primopdf instead. No viruses with that one. Cmon cnet, get it together!

"Tries to Install Junk"
Version: PDF Printer 4.0.0.463
Pros
Couldn't find any.
Cons
It tried to install 5 pieces of crapware during the install process and then after all that didn't work. Settled on doPDF, worked easy didn't try to install crap.
Summary
Use something else, doPDF worked for me. (http://download.cnet.com/doPDF-Free-PDF-Converter/3000-18497_4-10648880.html)
