printer driver to create pdf

We need a PDF converted which is used as a printer driver; means comes up with printer list in printer dialog.

Driver have ability to convert any type of document to PDF and with user define naming conventions at predefine location.

After converting to PDF from the code of driver directly call an executable or URL with newly generated PDF file name.

Overall we need PDF converter driver with customization.

You're going to have to contact Adobe and purchase an SDK that will let you develop an application that converts files to PDF.

Or, you could look into using something like activePDF to do the conversion for you. Contact the companies that have already developed this and see if they'll provide you an SDK that will let you build upon their products.
