Thank you for this clear explanation.  I can and do print to PDF (I have Adobe Acrobat on XP) and can then print from my host.  I am definitely on borrowed time using XP but I have one ancient app that won't run on a higher Windows OS than XP.  It's a real dinosaur but it fits my need just perfectly - and no monthly fees for a web based app. When it stops working, I guess I'll have to retire. Hopefully Fusion continues to support an XP VM.
