the PostScript file that is used by CUPS-PDF you will have to edit the source code of cups-pdf: close to the end of the code there are the lines: if (unlink(spoolfile)) log_event(CPERROR, "failed to unlink spoolfile (non fatal)", spoolfile); else log_event(CPDEBUG, "spoolfile unlinked", spoolfile); Just remove or comment out this block, re-compile cups-pdf and the spoolfile will stay after the printout. -- Volker Christian Behr Experimentelle Physik V (Biophysik), Physikalisches Institut Universitaet Wuerzburg, Am Hubland, 97074 Wuerzburg, Germany Office: Room F-069a +49-931-888-5766 (phone) +49-931-888-5851 (fax)
