Solution is to modify /etc/cups/cups-pdf.conf
and replace line :
#Label 0
by
Label 1
When it's done, all pdf files generated have an unique name. 'job
id'+'pdf name'.pdf
** Changed in: cups-pdf (Ubuntu)
Status: Confirmed = In Progress

[Tribe5] cups-pdf should not overwrite existing
Cups-pdf do not fail on creating pdf the second time.
Yes, I think it does. Try the following:
1. Create two test files, test1.html and test2.html.
test1.html

titleTest/title
/head

Test 1.
/body
/html
test2.html
===
html
head
titleTest/title
/head
body
Test 2.
Tested the suggested workaround, and it worked fine for me.
I hope that the workaround will be included as default in Ubuntu 7.10.
