Print to PDF/ trouble adding PrintToPDF extension

Post by colekinney »

Does anyone know how to unlock the system folder so I can add the PrintToPDF extension? I am running MAC OS9 in Sheepshaver. Thank you. Cole

In a default MacOS9 installation the System Folder is not locked/protected. There is a setting to protect the System Folder in the "General Controls" control panel, but (at least here in my setups) it does not work in SheepShaver.

- Which is your host system?
- How did you set up SheepShaver and install MacOS?
- Or did you use an image with pre-installed OS9 system?
- Note that while an install CD image should be locked on the host, an image with pre-installed system should not be locked.
