Why do I see a Temporary Printer Driver?

 

When running AcroPlot Pro or AcroPlot Jr to do the conversions we create a temporary version of the PDF-XChange for AcroPlot Pro printer driver to use just in case the user prints to the driver from another program during the conversion.  When you close AcroPlot Pro or AcroPlot Jr. the temporary printer driver should be deleted.  The temporary version will have a name like PDF-XChange for AcroPlot Pro5252

 

You should never try to print to this temporary version of the driver. 

 

If by change something happens with AcroPlot and it does not cleanly exit there is a chance that the temporary driver might be left behind.  The newer versions of our programs (late 2014) include routines that will delete out these temporary versions the next time that you run AcroPlot.

 

Below is an example of the Windows Printers and Faxes showing how there is also a temporary version of the driver along with the main one.
