  2. Reinstall Print to PDF Option / Missing Print to PDF (Windows 10)

    When I first upgraded to the Windows 10, I enjoyed the new "Print to PDF" option under the list of printer options. However, for some strange reason it stopped working a couple of weeks ago. I tried going back to previous "Builds", systems restores before
    updates, etc., but nothing fix the issue. I notice that "Print to PDF" was listed as a device under the Devices: Printers & Scanners within settings, similar to actually my Kodak Printer. So I thought I could just remove the "Print to PDF" device/printer/driver
    and reinstall it, similar to reinstalling my Kodak printer or a Kodak printer diver. However, I have been unsuccessful in locating a download or driver on Microsoft/Windows website for the "Print to PDF".

    Where can I find the Microsoft/Window 10 "Print to PDF" DOWNLOAD or DRIVER to download/install to get back my "Print to PDF" as a printer function/printer option?

    Microsoft Print to pdf

    I use Sibelius Software and recently the Microsoft Print to pdf hasn't been working properly. In looking for a solution it was suggested that I remove it from the computer and reinstall the driver etc. It looked easy to do. I followed the steps as told (way
    4)

    [Solved] Microsoft Print to PDF Not Working on Windows 10 - Driver Easy

    But when I started the process of reinstalling it in 'add devices and printers' and came to the bit about chosing a device I wasn't offered 'The printer that I want isn't listed' option, but instead it said 'can't find what you're looking for' and when I
    pressed that link it took me to a Microsoft page about Bluetooth. I'm not sure how to get round this?

    How can I reinstall the pdf printer?

    Thanks!
