Good idea, though I hope I'd solve this with a bit lighter artillery :). WMI has always looked too heavy to me. Besides, is it installed on every possible edition of Windows? Or maybe I should assume that if the user is running an older version (like W98 ME ;), he's not tech savvy enough to install a PDF driver anyway.
