    Re: HOWTO: Install Cups-PDF

    For Xubuntu, install cups-pdf then use

    sudo chmod +s /usr/lib/cups/backend/cups-pdf

    A virtual printer should appear in the printer manager (see the Desktop Guide documentation link on the default browser page for accessing the printer manager).

    Step through the set-up as for a normal printer. I used a generic PS/Foomatic printer option that seems to work OK.

    Set additional printer options in the printer tab. For web page options like background printing, use the browser page set-up dialogue.

    I can't speak for the others but I like to keep my system as "stock" as possible.I don't mind using third party software and apps of course;however for core system stuff I won't go outside the repos.

    I agree with you about this. Anyhow you can always check the deb before installing it. This deb include the latest cups-pdf.

    And also it have the permission fixed. (it set the permission to "user id" during install.
