Re: new computer XY-DOS



I got vDosXy from a Github download page.  No Winprint there -- it was on sourceforge.jp, although in English.  Is _that_ the one you meant ?  Shows up as a beta release.  I can run it by Avast!, Malwarebytes, &/or Virustotal, if there is any real concern about it.  Looking forward to seeing if this thing actually works.

John,

I assume that winprint.exe is safe. A quick Google search showed that 
there is malware out there bearing the same name. Can you confirm that 
the sourceforge download is trustworthy?

Also, can you point to any documentation for winprint.exe? I don't see 
any on sourceforge.

Finally, how do you print to a PDF using an HP printer file in XyWrite?

Thanks.
