32 Bit software on win 7 or win 8

[perasbro]

Hi All!
I' new here and hope someone can help me with information.

I work now with XP SP3.
Filemaker Pro 5.
I have a hugh number of registers working together and use some Plug-Ins.
One of the best is a SCHUBECK PDF Printer with the possibility making multi pages pdf's.
I have to install ghostscript 8.54 to have it work.

In the future I have to buy a new computer.
As its only Win 8 avaible, or if luck Win 7, both with 64 bit I have problems.

Filemaker itself is running on 64bit in the x86 folder and ghostscript seems also to work but when installning Schubeck I got an messeage that Schubeck couldnt find a printer.

Ghostscript is installed in x86 folder as a 32 bit software.

Does anyone know how Win 7 or Win 8 32 bit work?
If I install the 32 bit version would it act as a XP so the plugin printer will work?

32 bit software will work absolutely fine on 64 bit

Dear Effeectt,
The Filemaker software is working but not the Plug-In, and the job the Plug-In makes is very importent.
It didn't work. I have tested it.
Eighter I have to find another Plug-In for Filemaker 5 which within a script print multipages pdf's and send it automatic by email, or find a way to get it work with Schubeck.

Could it be something with ghostscript which doesnt work?
