Before installing PrimoPDF, I read:

<<When prompted for a destination, navigate to your desktop and click OK.
On the desktop, double-click the file named PrimoSetup.exe. 4 .Follow the instructions on the screen to complete the installation. >>

During the install process, I never received this "destination" request. The only icon to appear on my desktop was a Word document that said Launch PrimoPDF Instructions.

When I opened these instructions, all I saw is gobblediegook (looks like greek or mars lingo with a smattering of english). Completely unreadable.

If I go to any document or file and click "print", I do see the option for the Primo setting. I select that and pick a destination etc., and it is copied to that location. When I go to open that newly saved pdf file, I get a new window that says "choose conversion" The choices are many from chinese to european etc. Any choice simply gives further gobblediegook. If I pick any and open the file then more gobblediegook.

Two hours now. Uninstall, reinstall, frustration. Going to bed.

Using Windows 98, please help

Are you using an english version of windows? Also what are you using to view the pdfs?
