[Bug 1026254] Re: Open with on folders was removed, Ubuntu should consider patching back

2015-03-13 Thread Mark Edgington

One workaround for this which seems consistently to work for me is to first print it to another PDF file via cups-pdf, and then open the generated PDF file, and print it (all printing done via evince). This may mean that a good filter is being used by cups-pdf, which might be able to be adapted
