If the Amyuni PDF Converter does not show up in your Printers and Faxes folder, it must have gotten deleted somehow.

You can reinstall by going into your C:\Program Files\Graphisoft\ArchiCAD 9\PDF Converterfolder. You'll find a PDF manual there, and an Install folder containing the 'install' program to reinstall.

Ah. You've set your publishing set to be a "save as" rather than a "print" set.

You can "save as" PDF, or you can "print" to the PDF driver as you probably know. I believe there is some slight functionality difference, but I haven't used the 'save as' approach, so don't know what it is.

Yes, PDF should appear below Module File.

Your registry might have gotten damaged, I suppose. I'm not positive, but I think that the setting that affects this may be the 'Disable PDF Support' key in the 'Driver Error Patch' folder. (That key should be '0'.)
