While investigating bug 891074 I have found out that Okular is one of the few programs which still sends PostScript. To make the CUPS workflow more straight and to fulfill the new standard it should send PDF (and AFAIK the other KDE programs send PDF). In addition, the most displayed file format is PDF and Okular could simply pass through the PDF input files when printing, making the printing even faster and more reliable. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugs.kde.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug. _______________________________________________ Okular-devel mailing list [email protected] https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/okular-devel
