Export to PDF no longer working in Capture CIS 17.2

rsbonini

When I try to export to PDF from Capture CIS, the session log shows "(::capPdfUtil::printPdf) Generating PDF file from postscript ...." but no file is ever generated.  This function was working yesterday when I shutdown.  I've tried changing the Postscript Driver from "Microsoft Print to PDF" to "OrCADPS_17.2" after creating a generic printer with that name but no luck.

Without even an error message I'm not sure what the issue is.  Any suggestions would be appreciated.

    Same here -- tried with 64 and 32 bit versions of GS (Win 10).

    The PDF export works fine in CIS too. Browse the path again for Ghostscript (if you are using GS as a converter) or the Acrobat distiller. Save the design once before exporting to PDF. I am using 17.2 S0064 and found no issue in exporting PDF
