On my 8.1 system I have two PDF printers defined.
The first is the pseudo printer defined by KDE which uses ps2pdf to generate 
PDF files. With this printer I have had disappointing results when printing 
complex spreadsheets from StarOffice6.0 with the resulting pdf files being 
unreadable by either gv or Acrobat4.05, or else them being readable but of 
poor quality with columns wandering all over the place.

The second pdf printer I added by selecting the Adobe Distiller2017.801 
printer driver from the list offered by printerdrake.  This printer does not 
seem to work at all. If I put a postscript file into it, a postscript file 
comes out again, but with a slightly different header.

Any suggestions?
Would it help for example to use the non GPL but freely available 
ghostscript7.x instead of the GPL'd ghostscript6.51 supplied with Mandrake?

TIA
