**************** Hi, Take a look to see if the file "cups-pdf" is available on SuSE's mirrors. If not you may want to compile it yourself. It's very handy, in that it lets you create a Virtual pdf printer you can just select from any printer dialog and print the document directly to a good pdf file. Acroread can read the file most excellent as do the other pdf readers. When setting it up, you want to choose Postscript as the brand & model of printer. Makes printing to pdf very handy & easy from your programs. have fun, Lee -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
