Default Vista?

Hi, any plans for a Vista (x64) compatible version of this?
I used it in XP Pro, but can't get it to install in Vista. :(

Foxit PDF Creator failed on installation (it was Run as Administrator) with this error:
"Error happened to Foxit PDF Creator, installation might not be complete.
Error tag = "AddPrinter:1797".
Please report this error to Foxit"

Any subsequent attempts to re-install fail with this error "The same printer driver has existed. If you want to reinstall Foxit PDF Creator, please uninstall it first." Printer driver is not fully installed (doesn't show up in Printers), and can only be removed using the CleanDrivers process outlined elsewhere here (again run as Admin).

Is this something you're intending to fix at all, or would Vista x64 users be better off using some other PDF creation software which does work correctly?

nah, they are going to fix it, since everyone will eventually have vista.

Not everyone will have 64bit vista though, and judging by the lack of response I guess foxit won't be supporting it anytime soon. Which is a shame.
Still, on the plus side there do seem to be plenty of other software vendors who are supporting it..

Where can I find the 'cleandrivers' process for Foxit Creator .pdf driver? I've searched the Forum but can't seem to locate it. Thanks.
