Droplets of hydrogen molecules were generated by the same method as that of He droplets}, 2622 (2004)}. Hydrogen droplets thus produced consist of about $105$ molecules with a temperature of about 4 K}, 6258 (1995)}. We found that hydrogen droplets pick up phthalocyanine molecules in a pickup chamber like He droplets. Laser induced fluorescence spectra of phthalocyanine molecules captured by hydrogen droplets showed spectra similar to those observed for phthalocyanine-(H$\mathrm{<mrow\; data-mjx-texclass="ORD">2</mrow>}$) clusters embedded in He droplets with $N>1000$, but the spectrum in hydrogen droplets showed sharper linewidth than that of phthalocyanine-(H$\mathrm{<mrow\; data-mjx-texclass="ORD">2</mrow>}$) in He droplets. In addition, a clear dependence in the linewidth on the \textit{ortho}-to-\textit{para} concentration ratio was observed. We will discuss details of the observed spectra.
