I followed the directions in the OpenOffice manual on setting up a PDF
Converter. Basically, it said to open up spadmin and create a new
printer that would point to the PDF driver and become a "PDF Printer".
I did this, ran a test page, and it worked fine.
But the printer I created is not showing up in the list of printers in
the Print dialogue box when I try to Print a file to a PDF.
I closed OpenOffice and openned it again, but to no avail.
According to the manual, the printer should be showing up in the
pull-down menu of available printers. It is not.
Initially, when starting spadmin as user "sugapablo", spadmin did not
save my printer. I started spadmin as root and it did save the printer
in it's menu the next time I openned spadmin. Perhaps that's part of
the issue? But then, how would I transfer those rights to "sugapablo"?
(I don't know if this has anything to do with it at all, but I thought
I'd mention it.)
Any ideas?
