I have a MacBook that conects tru Remote Apps/Remote Desktop to a windows 2008 Server. The printers are redirected with no problems. The problem is the PDF printer.
I want to be able to save from the Remote APP to my desktop the Print Job as PDF. The OSX PDF printer does not redirect. How can i achive this? I dont mind using apps to do so, its just dont know any in Mac systems.
Thanks for taking a look.

Just try installing a PDF printer for OSX, as you mentioned. Here's a link to some options (Top google result for "PDF Printer OSX") https://pdf.wondershare.com/pdf-editing-tips/pdf-printer-mac.html

The problem is the Windows pdf printer presumably - as Windows needs 3rd party software to support pdf... Though I will admit, the question as it stands is somewhat confusing. – Tetsujin – 2017-02-10T18:35:41.450
Thanks guys for your help. Tetsujin, i now about the Mac ative PDF, but when you do a Remote Session, that PDF "printer" is not redirected. so you cant print to PDF. I assume thats because the native PDF is not actualy a printer. Hope i wans't confusing this time. – Millz – 2017-02-13T15:11:50.527
I'm pretty sure you're going to need something capable on the remote machine. It's not a problem I've ever really tackled as it's just never cropped up before. There's a whole slew of methods here & they claim it's now built into Windows too, it just needs enabling - http://www.digitaltrends.com/computing/print-pdf-windows/
