No need. You can convert postscript to pdf with a single command:

In any case, it worked fine a few weeks ago. I know I have a new version of firefox, so what did they remove?? ...
openSUSE 11.0 64 bit Firefox 3.0.2
It workred in any FF 3.0 since installation. Considering printing I can't recall that I have seen YaST. It just worked as set during installation.
Print to file option in Firefox has 2 radio buttons to select pdf or ps file as a target. If you press pdf it will change default name mozilla.ps to mozilla.pdf, so I change mozilla to something more descriptive and it saves/prints as pdf.
Exactly. As FF 3 uses the Gnome print dialog and that always(*) has a PDF option there shouldn't be any issue. (*) not sure since when and if really in _every_ case a PDF choice is available So probably he's using FF2 which never had a builtin function to create PDFs but only is capable to print to a postscript file or to any configured cups printer (or another print application using about:config) but anyway I don't see Firefox' fault here.
