I found WineVDM while trying to run an old PCB CAD software (Protel Advanced PCB 2.8) on modern Windows. The program works except for one part (that I've found so far), in which trying to adjust printer settings by selecting "Printer..." (landscape/portrait, etc.) doesn't open any settings box. Trying admininstrator mode and Windows compatibility mode didn't change anything. It does the same across 3 different PCs (2x Windows 7, 1x Windows 10, all 64-bit).

protel print dialog 2

If you want to test this, I uploaded the Protel software to archive.org.
