I can choose any printer I like in firefox. I get the complete dialog,
and I haven't changed the settings. Only that PDF is not in the list,
and I don't miss it. Just my case, though.

I know it is possible to add printers with converters in cups. I have
one such, but not for PDF. Maybe later I can look this up and post it here.


I agree that it can be done in cups but not any longer in YaST. In cups I
have a "PDF" printer configured but it does not show in FF as it _should_.
