CUPS-PDF for Debian ------------------- This Debian package of CUPS-PDF is configured as follow: * Log files are created by group "lpadmin" to match CUPS permissions. * Anonymous Samba output to directory. * Standard user output to <${HOME}/PDF/> directory. The settings are fully configurable by editing using the system administrator's favorite text editor. CAVEAT (UBUNTU) AppArmor prevents outputting PDF documents to non-default directories so must also be edited, whenever the above defaults get changed in . The optional GTK package is capable of detecting this CUPS backend as a suitable ready-to-use printer. NOTES * Follow these instructions for debugging and reporting printing issues: * CUPS-PDF.PPD is the only recognized backend since 2.4.7 and this is a feature intended to reduce confusion for the end-user. If you require paper sizes not supported by CUPS-PDF.PPD, please file a bug report. * This package is never affected by Poppler or XPDF bugs; only external tools used to generate the PDF might be. Therefore, avoid filing bugs related to those codebases against CUPS-PDF. -- Martin-Éric Racine Sat, 10 Dec 2011 12:45:25 +0200
