Print Wizard question

[Bob Rasmussen]

Note that it is also possible to have printwiz.exe decode environment 
variables in many parameters, including specifying the PDF output 
filename. These can be variables that exist in the Windows environment, or 
variables that are defined internally in Print Wizard. The Print Wizard 
manual explains all these.
