[QUOTE="caribiner23, post: 281808, member: 9169"] In the Parallels world, you have the advantages and limitations of the operating system running within; in other words, you do not have access to the Mac's "print to .pdf" in your XP environment under Parallels. As Reel said, you'd need to install Acrobat or you could download a package like [URL="http://www.cs.wisc.edu/%7Eghost/"]GhostScript[/URL] for free. I run Office 2004 for Mac and Office 2000 (jeez, I [I]hate [/I]Office 2003: bloatware!) in my XP partition in Parallels on the same machine. They both run equally well for me. On my MacBook (2.0 GHz Core Duo, 2 GB) Office 2004 for Mac doesn't run nearly as badly as some people on this forum may have you believe. I do a [I]lot [/I]of Powerpoint presentations and Excel workbooks for my office, and my Office 2004 for Mac runs nearly as well as Office 2003 runs on my office ThinkPad T40. [/QUOTE]
