Listmates,
The FF3 print to file dialog on Linux does not allow you to select and edit an existing filename (.pdf or .ps) before saving a new document. If the new FF3 print to file dialog is as annoying to you as it is to me, please go vote for a fix. A bug report has been filed:

The other complaint that one can't add shortcut to location in mentioned dialog is not OK. There is Add (+) button.
Thanks Rajko!, I stand corrected, you can Add to the find directory dialog and then the print dialog will create the listbox from the directory dialog bookmarks. Seems like an awful cludge when a regular old save dialog would work just fine.
The possible annoyance is that file name is mozilla.ps each time you want to print web page to pdf.
Yes, that is the primary annoyance. As indicated in the bug report, this is crippling when you need to create and save a series of pdfs with lengthy similar filenames. Again, the regular old save dialog would have worked just fine.
If you already have pdf file on a web page than use Save instead of Print option. The file name in a dialog will be original from the web page, and it is editable.
I wish. Unfortunately, the files are in html and must be printed to create the pdfs. If they were pdfs, wget would work just fine and I wouldn't need to involve a browser in the file creation process. Hopefully, this capability will be added back in the near future. Mozilla must have stolen a play from the kde4 playbook with this dialog ;-) -- David C. Rankin, J.D., P.E.
