Description Rodd Clarkson 2004-08-30 00:52:55 UTC
Currently, when you print to PDF, the print-manager uses 'output.pdf' as the
default for the file name it produces.

I would be better if it used the name of the file being printed as the basis for
the file name.  This would alleviate a lot of need to change the name before
'printing' and also help make it more obvious which file the output went to.

confirm. this is also the case for ps and svg and will likely need some changes
in the apps that call gnome-print such as gnumeric and abiword.

Since libgnomeprintui is deprecated this bug has been filled against gtk+ printing.
