In Japanese environment (primary language 2962), checking "Use PDF format if available" in "Printer Output" generates garbage.
By specifying appropriate parameters for conversion by TS1, it is possible to generate readable PDF.
For example, OVRPRTF command should be performed specifying DEVTYPE, PAGESIZE, LPI, FRONTMGN, CDEFNT, UOM, IGCDTA, TOSTMF, WSCST parameters to get readable Japanese PDF.
ACS users in Japan (and possibly other non latin-1 countries) can use "Printer Output" to easily get spool file as PDF like latin-1 countries.
