[opensuse] Re: Firefox 3 and kprinter for PDF
See Thread at: http://www.techienuggets.com/Detail?tx=41228 Posted on behalf of a User I have successfully modified a single value in about:config so that the native print to file dialog in Firefox 3 consistently defaults to pdf and the default directory and file name of my choice. I posted the solution to this link forums-test.mozillazine.org/viewtopic.php?f=8&t=1010695 Scroll down to the last post in that thread, entitled "How to Modify about:config to Make the Firefox 3 "print to file" Dialog Window Default to pdf (instead of postscript) and Default to the Directory and File Name of Your Choice" One cannot get Firefox 3 to send print jobs to kprinter so this is the closest you can get to the convenience of the kprinter dialog. Not a perfect solution but better than nothing. In Response To: Hi all, I usually print to PDF's with most programmes. In all I can choose a PostScript/default Printer and enter in the Properties under Print Command "kprinter". Then kprinter takes over and prints wherever or whatever I need; in this case PDF. How can I do that in Firefox 3's menu item Print. I can no longer enter a print command. (openSUSE 10.3 / FireFox 3.0). The print to File in FireFox is nice, but you have to enter the whole path every time you print a document, and it always uses the very first document name you used as print.ps (which actually kprinter also did, but the path was remembered though). Can a default path or previous path with previous file name be 'remembered'? :-) Al -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+noway@spam.com For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+noway@spam.com -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
