Erroneous “Install Failed”

[schmidhauser]

As you may see below, my install of v2.0.5 ended with the note that the install failed. The note is false, however: everything works perfectly fine.

M1, on macOS Ventura 13.1. – Thank you very much for the utility.

Thanks. I’ve been able to reproduce this and it will be fixed shortly. As you noted, the error occurs at a point where the software has been successfully installed. You will want to open the Utility to create the folder into which the printed files are placed. The Utility can be found in /Library/Printers/RWTS/Utilities/ or you can go to System Preferences, open Printers & Scanners, choose the PDFWriter printer > Options and Supplies > Utility and click on Open Printer Utility. Alternatively, simply reinstall. The Installer will correctly open the Utility the second time around.
