Re: [opensuse] Printing to PDF from Firefox - Something Broke

Summfing broke:

I often print files from Firefox to PDF. I have been doing this for some time
and on a regular basis (receipts for registration and whatnot) on my current
system - openSUSE 10.3/KDE.

I went to print - of all things - a registration for LinuxDay 2008.
(http://www.novell.com/linux/linuxday/register.html)

I no longer have the print-to-file option that I did with the option to select
PDF or Postscript.

I went ahead and selected the Print to File button next to the drop-down list
of printers in the print dialog box.

I was given simply the option of a name. I went ahead and selected myname.pdf.
I ended up with a useless postscript file.


Isn't this the gnome way, take away configuration options to make it
easier for people to use.

There used to be a way to tell the print engine to use kprinter as the
device which would give more options but the brains that be took it away.
