anyone knows where a printer data stream is stored, and how to capture it a ruby executable? (for later pdf conversion for example)

I'm questioning this one, related to another question of mine. So transparent that i can't catch it...Using Rghost to emulate ghostscript command as would be on virtual printer

It's going to depend on your OS. It looks like Windows above. What I usually do in a situation like this is use procmon to capture all of the system calls and then hunt through the output to find the call I'm looking for. It's a bit like looking for a particular packet in a network trace.

Procmon is the windows tool I use. It can be found here: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/bb896645.aspx
