muttprint on PDF
Dear mutt users, I have installed 'muttprint' in order to print my mails nicely. The preferred way for printing messages is on a local file instead of sending them to a printing device. 'muttprint' seems to produce Encapsulated PostScript files only, i.e. using LaTeX and not pdfLaTeX to compile them. Is it possible to produce a nicely printed, _local_PDF_file_ when pressing 'p'. This is the corresponding entry in my .muttrc: set print_command=muttprint --printer TO_FILE:$HOME/Desktop/muttprint.eps %s Best, AS

How to match multi-charactors?
Hi, list: I'm trying to limit the messages with the key binding l then =b foo, but I find foo must be English, multi-charactor can't match any messages, so my question is how to let mutt match the messages whose message body contents some particular multi-charactors? -- Hi, Wu, Yue

It produces ps file which you can convert to pdf using ps2pdf. So, what about: set print_command=muttprint --printer TO_FILE:$HOME/Desktop/muttprint.ps %s;ps2pdf $HOME/Desktop/muttprint.ps;\rm $HOME/Desktop/muttprint.ps Ionel P.S. eps files are to be included in LaTeX (usually images).

My mistake, it is PostScript of course. P.S. eps files are to be included in LaTeX (usually images). they can also be converted to pdf files which can then be included as images in MS Word. (Sometimes you have to... :-( ) Thanks for the fast and helpful replies. I made a mixure of your solutions which seems to suit me just fine (and it looks fairly elegant): set print_command=muttprint -p - | ps2pdf - $HOME/Desktop/muttprint.pdf Anyway, special thanks goes to Marco Giusti for his alternative offer.
