This exactly is what I get. At least it has the gnome feeling, but there is no about box to confirm. And print to file has the radio button to select pdf.
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.
No, he is using FF3, but perhaps he has changed the default about:config settings. It was the usual trick previously.
What happens if the user did not install gnome? Maybe it falls back to another default?

I was one of the people complaining about not being able to print to a pdf file, but that is with FF2 (openSUSE 10.3) which _is_ missing that option. I checked on my laptop running 11.0 and FF3 and the option is there. :-)) As soon as 11.1 GM is available I will be installing it on my desktop and will have FF3. -- Ken Schneider SuSe since Version 5.2, June 1998 -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
