We run Server 2008 R2 (which is x64) and we use this to publish remote applications (which is sort of like remote desktop) but the application runs in it’s own windows and looks the application is running locally. It’s really quite cool, a bit like Citrix Presentation...
We have tried other PDF creators and they do not seem to work correctly with RemoteApps, the PDF Create software that tries to “pop up” windows, etc, just doesn’t work. We’ve also found these other PDF Creators don’t work with Windows Server 2008 x86 (32bit) RemoteApps either and we suspect it’s to do with the way RemoteApps from Microsoft works.
We have found some software that promises x86 and x64 support and Terminal Server support (aka Remote Desktop), works fine for standard remote desktop users, but NOT when using RemoteApps in either Server 2008 or 2008 R2.
Question:

Does doPDF crrectly support RemoteApps on Windows Server 2008 R2 x64 for creating PDF’s for users?

Hi, no dopdf doesn't offer support for Terminal Services, and it seems that remoteapps are accessed exactly through TS. However you can try novapdf - http://www.novapdf.com/ (one of the Server editions), as you'll be able to print to them via TS.
