Description Don Scorgie 2006-07-21 11:43:31 UTC 
For some tasks, it is neccessary to create a temporary ps file and pass that into the GtkPrinting stuff.

Unfortunately, doing that results in the loss of being able to output pdf.  It'd be brilliant if Gtk handled this case and outputted a shiny pdf file, generated from the ps.

I know there are plenty of ps2pdf converters around, it'd just be nice to offer the option of printing to pdf without having to go through them :)

We're moving to gitlab! As part of this move, we are closing bugs that haven't seen activity in more than 5 years. If this issue is still imporant to you and
still relevant with GTK+ 3.22 or master, please consider creating a gitlab issue
for it.
