Windows 11 and Microsoft Print to PDF

Hello all -

I have a new computer and Windows 11 (upgrade). Just tried to edit the Microsoft Print to PDF to include a new size (Arch D). I had done this successfully on a Windows 10 machine using the method described here:

Microsoft Print to PDF - custom paper sizes possible? - Microsoft Community

Does not seem to work with Windows 11.

1. The print driver blows up if you add the name with a space in it, so I went from "Arch D" to "ArchD".
   
2. Then it didn't like the larger paper sizes and blew up (had to reinstall the print driver).
   
3. Then tied copying another of the definitions for another paper and just changed the name, using the same sizes. Nothing. Didn't blow up, but still couldn't see "ArchD" in the drop down list.
   
4. Then looked at the registry and saw there is an entry showing the drop down list so I added it there. Nada.
   
5. Giving up after 4 hours of attempts.
   

Anyone know a good PDF maker besides expensive Adobe?
