My personal ranking of the 4 PDF-printers is:

  1. doPDF
  2. Bullzip PDF PRINTER
  3. CutePDF
  4. qvPDF

Advantages of doPDF over Bullzip PDF PRINTER, CutePDF Writer and qvPDF

With one click you can make this folder to the standard folder where to store doPDF-files

Advantages of doPDF and Bullzip PDF PRINTER over CutePDF Writer and qvPDF

  1. It is easy to choose the folder, where to store the pdf-file
  2. You can also select the target-folder from recent folders (and files) in Vista
  3. You can select to open the new PDF-file after creating it with your standard PDF-reader, e.g. PDF-XChange Viewer

PROs & CONs of Bullzip PDF PRINTER over CutePDF Writer and qvPDF

PRO: You can hook to open the target-folder with the new PDF-file after creating it

CON: the suggested filename has all word 2 times instead only one time. To delete it costs time

PROs & CONs of CutePDF

CON: Installation of Ask Toolbar is suggested, but can be hooked away

CON: Installation of Driver Updater is suggested, but can be declined by hooking it away

PROs & CONs of qvPDF

PRO: qvPDF is a PDF creator for Windows, but you can also merge & split pdf-documents.

CON: it is difficult to select the folder and name of the printed PDF-File

CON: No complete uninstalling with deleting all files and folders . In case of a reinstallation because of a printing problem, you have the problem again because the old settings are used again.

CON: I could not stop the printing of a document sent to the printer
