** Description changed: In Jaunty, GNOME print dialogs have a Print to File printer available in the Print dialog. When you select this printer, the output file's suggested name is output.pdf and the suggested location is the user's - home directory. Even worse, Firefox suggests ~/.ps, which will create - an invisible file in the user's home directory, using a file format - (postscript) that the user may not understand. + home directory. output is jargon, has the potential to collide with another file of the same name in the destination directory, and is difficult to remember as it has no relation to the name of the file being printed. Incorporating the source file's name in the output filename seems like a great improvement. Saving to the user's home directory is reasonable, but the Desktop is a more accessible location. We may also want to consider saving the PDF to the same directory as the source file. Suggestion: - * Always default to PDF format. - * Reuse the source filename if known, else use Untitled or the naming convention for unnamed files. - * Default to saving on the Desktop rather than inside the user's home folder. + * Always default to PDF format. + * Reuse the source filename if known, else use Untitled or the naming convention for unnamed files. + * Default to saving on the Desktop rather than inside the user's home folder. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/382829 Title: Suggested output when printing a file to PDF is technical and generic ~/output.pdf To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/gtk/+bug/382829/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 382829] Re: Suggested output when printing a file to PDF is technical and generic ~/output.pdf
Apart from the strange location / filename there is something else worth noting. Print to file doesn't immediately ring a bell that this is the solution to print to pdf. Isn't it better to install by default a 'print to pdf' printer? I think that there is no one out there who doesn't want to have a print to pdf as a default printer pre installed. I can imagine that there are still people out there installing additional packages as cups pdf, because the have no clue that printing to pdf is possible by selecting 'print to file'. 'Print to PDF' rings immediately a bell. -- Suggested output when printing a file to PDF is technical and generic ~/output.pdf https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/382829 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

@Hein I'm one of those people. I always install cups-pdf, it always puts the documents in a consistent location from any program I run. I think I had print to file create a .ps file one time, so I've never used it since. -- Suggested output when printing a file to PDF is technical and generic ~/output.pdf https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/382829 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I have been through myriad sites and literature and I know the answer is NOT POSSIBLE, but still I want to post my questions as Paper Cut. Is it possible to enter a filename and a path for the PDF file generated by the PDF-printer-driver (CUPS-PDF)? -- Suggested output when printing a file to PDF is technical and generic ~/output.pdf https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/382829 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Rather than saving to the user's desktop, consider defaulting to the user's XDG Documents directory. This helps keep the desktop spare, increases simple discoverability and access using the Home function from the file chooser (e.g. when attaching the PDF to email), and has a localised pathname that matches other guidance to the user on where document files should be stored. -- Suggested output when printing a file to PDF is technical and generic ~/output.pdf https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/382829 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Changing the default name and location should be easy enough. What location is recommended by the design team there? The default format is already being pdf, firefox behaving differently is a firefox issue, they seem to set their own option and not use the default -- Suggested output when printing a file to PDF is technical and generic ~/output.pdf https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/382829 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
