Subject: Re: HOWTO

The idea that PDF is meant for printing is a common misconception. It's a
"Portable Display Format", not a "Portable Printing Format". PDF documents
often print better than other formats because they're better constructed.

But to print them under Fedora, CUPS has automatic transformation tools
built into it (which uses Ghostscript). You can use "pdf2ps" (which uses
Ghostscript), you can use ImageMagick's "convert" utility (which uses
Ghostscript), you can display them with xpdf and then print them from that
software (which will use Ghostscript), etc. You may detect a theme here....
