Of course this hard drive had the operating system from the old computer since I had simply pulled the hard drive from the unit. On my Windows 10 computer, I was looking through a hard drive from an old computer (running windows 98) which was able to run PageMaker 6.5. I did stumble upon a potential work around. I have been a user of PageMaker 6.5 for many years and was disappointed when it would not load on my new Windows 10 computer. If it doesn't work, I will post back, and if it does, I cannot stress enough how much I appreciate the help.Thanks again, I will try suggesting that we run everything off of the hard disk though.I can't try to fix it until tomorrow. the pagemaker files and the pictures we placed are all on a network drive. we aren't completely contained locally though. Thank you again for your help.Chad Chavez That may be the problem, I am having the school check that as well. The version of pagemaker is 7.0.the PC is networked through the school. It tells me that the drive is full, even though it has 3.07 GB left.Cannot Save:Ĩ014:0099For the background information, here goes.WE are using an XP and Win98 system that are both not working. I click yes and it gives me that message.The other save error is occuring when I just try to save as. Parameters Incorrect7801:7702That is the message I am getting when I try to quit out, and it asks me if I want to save. Here is the exact message.HyperContent Manager Error this makes it impossible to backup our work in any way, shape, or form.Any help would be appreciated. Also, While trying to print, we are getting a HyperContent Manager error. When we attempt to save, we are getting errors telling us that the drive is full, but after checking the drive, we have over 3 Gig available. Only the Windows Type 3 PostScript driver based on PSCRIPT5.DLL (actually developed as a joint project by Adobe and Microsoft) will yield proper results.Īnd yes, PPD does stand for PostScript Printer Definition and that file is what “table drives” PSCRIPT5.DLL for a specific pritner type including providing the proper available printer options for the Printer Properties dialog.I work for a school newspaper and I am having problems with Pagemaker saving and printing. Forget about use of any CMYK colorants, separations, Pantone colors, printer-specific imaging options, etc. You have very few options with this driver and its use is most strongly discouraged by Adobe. That driver does not support any application which generates its own PostScript including Adobe applications such as Illustrator, InDesign, Photoshop, Acrobat, and FrameMaker as well as third party applications such as AutoCAD, CorelDRAW, and QuarkXPress. Since most Windows applications (including Microsoft Office applications) actually generate GDI, using this Microsoft PS Class Driver causes application GDI commands to be translated to XPS which is then translated to a generic PostScript and much can and is lost in this two-stage convertion to PostScript. PostScript as opposed to PCL or whatever), and operating system version (i.e., Windows 10, 32 or 64-bit).Ībsolutely Wrong! The Microsoft PS Class Driver is a generic, highly-discredited (even by internal Microsoft developers) Windows Type 4 Microsoft printer driver that converts XPS to PostScript and can yield more errors than an early Mets game! May sure you choose the proper printer model, the PDL you want (i.e. Given that older printers packaged with the device may not be compatible with Windows 10, checking the vendor's website is the safest bet. It will assist you in creating a proper PostScript printer driver instance with the correct PPD file and parameters using the built in PSCRIPT5.DLL driver that ships with Windows 10.Īlternatively, most printers come with a driver installer or one may be downloaded from the printer vendor's website. To install PostScript printer drivers now, you use the Add a printer or scanner function of the Printers & Scanners settings dialog. For that reason, Adobe stopped distribution of this driver installer many years ago. It either doesn't work at all or improperly runs on any newer version of Windows including all 64-bit versions of Windows and all varieties of Windows Vista, Windows 7, Windows 8.x, and Windows 10. Support for the driver installer ended with Windows XP 32 bit. It also supported associating a PPD file with the standard Windows PostScript driver, a joint project of Adobe and Microsoft, that shipped with Windows 2000 and later versions, to create a driver instance associated with the printer type described in the PPD file selected. It was designed to install the AdobePS PostScript Printer Driver on Windows'95, Windows'98, and Windows'ME as well as a special version of the AdobePS PostScript Printer Driver on Windows NT 4.0. To expand on the previous response, what you tried to install was an Adobe PostScript Printer Driver Installer dating back to 2002 in terms of its last update.
