Here you can set all properties of - CUPS-PDF at runtime without the need for restarting any services. - (The defaults should work fine on most systems.) - - In case you want to use the color PostScript driver that comes with - CUPS-PDF go to the extra/ subdirectory and copy CUPS-PDF.ppd to your - CUPS model directory (usually /usr/share/cups/model [ /Generic ] ). - - -2. setting up the PDF queue with CUPS -------------------------------------- - - Important notes: - ================ - - * CUPS-PDF requires root privileges since it has to modify file ownerships. - In order to ensure CUPS-PDF is running with the required root privileges - you have to make 'root' the owner of the cups-pdf backend and set the - file permissions of the backend to 0700 (root only). - NOTE: in older versions of CUPS (<1.2.0) you have to set the "RunAsUser" - option in cupsd.conf to "No" in order to grant full privileges. - * CUPS-PDF needs a fully featured UNIX-filesystem to work. Make sure if any - of CUPS-PDF's working directories (e.g. output) are located on an NFS - mounted volume they are mounted without root_squash! Other filesystems - (e.g. NetWare or Windows shares) are _not_ supported! - * CUPS-PDF is known to fail if the gs (GhostScript) binary on a system is - compressed by upx (Ultimate Packer for eXecutables). - * If you are using SELinux, AppArmour or similar tools, make sure these do - not interfere with CUPS-PDF. - (You can disable SELinux for CUPS by "setsebool -P cupsd_disable_trans 1" - or have a look at contrib/SELinux-HOWTO to make it work) - - Now you will be able to choose "CUPS-PDF (Virtual PDF Printer)" when - setting up a new printer in CUPS (a CUPS-restart may be necessary). - To set up a queue for other UNIX clients you should select Postscript as - vendor and the Color Printer as model for your new printer; queues that get - their input from samba or netatalk (i.e. Windows, OS/2 or MacOS) can be set - up as raw queues. On the Windows, OS/2 or MacOS system choose a color - postscript driver for that network printer (the drivers for Minolta Page - Works or HP DesignJet printers do a good job). - Hint: If you want to create grayscale PDFs you just have to choose a - grayscale printer driver, i.e. the postscript.ppd that comes with CUPS on - the Linux side or a b/w laser printer (e.g. a HP LaserJet) on the Windows - side. On the Linux side be aware that the postscript.ppd will not - re-process data that is already supplied in Postscript format, i.e. a color - Postscript will keep it's colors. - - Once you print to the new device the output directory selected in - cups-pdf.conf (defaults to /var/spool/cups-pdf) will be created and all - converted PDF files will be placed in subdirectories named after the owner - of the print job. In case the owner cannot be identified (i.e. does not - exist on the server) the output is placed in the directory for anonymous - operation (if not disabled in cups-pdf.conf - defaults to - /var/spool/cups-pdf/ANONYMOUS/). - Furthermore if logging is enabled the logfile will be placed by default in - /var/log/cups. - - The file "CUPS-PDF.ppd" is a modified version of the "Postscript.ppd.gz" - that comes with CUPS 1.1.15 that is able to handle color output. - - You should have a look at the contrib/ directory in this bundle which - contains several additions to CUPS-PDF which enhance functionality or - supports the setup of CUPS-PDF on different platforms. - - -3. note for MacOSX ------------------- - - Since MacOSX' AFPL GhostScript does not support the way of PDF generation - used by CUPS-PDF you will have to use pstopdf instead. For this the - settings of GhostScript, GSCall and PDFVer in cups-pdf.conf have to be - changed accordingly.
