[wplug] OpenOffice: Cannot install PDF Converter Printer

[John Harrold]

Sometime in February Jonathan Billings assaulted the keyboard and produced:

| One of the things that openoffice does, which I can't stand, is it 
| runs it's configuration based on where you called it.  Thats why you 
| have to "install" it into your home directory, otherwise it doesn't 
| know where to save.  Why they couldn't just place binaries in 
| /usr/local/bin, and save to some standard place in your home directory, 
| like the rest of the unix world does.  Take a look at the shell scripts 
| that run the openoffice apps, they are definately far too complicated. 
| 

kind of off topic, but does anyone know how to create printers for all
users on a computer without having each user run spadmin? perhaps something
that could be placed in /etc?
