CUPS - adding pdf printer


Hi folks,

FC5_64

Adding a filtering PDF printer:

Started CUPS web interface with "http://localhost:631/admin" on a browser.

Administration --> Add Printer --> Continue

But could not find "PDF Writing" on Device drop-list. Please advise. TIA

Tks for your URL.

I have the pdf printer built. My problem is;

On printing a web page
File --> Print --> Properties (on a small "print" window)

The "print command" box can't be found there (only the "Paper Size:" box there). Occasionally it popup there. It seems out of my control.
