1. building CUPS-PDF
|
||||||
|
--------------------
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Edit src/cups-pdf.h if you do not like /etc/cups/cups-pdf.conf as name
|
||||||
|
for the configuration file.
|
||||||
|
To compile CUPS-PDF, invoke gcc in the src/ directory:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
gcc -O9 -s -o cups-pdf cups-pdf.c
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
To install the binary, simply copy cups-pdf to the backend directory
|
||||||
|
of CUPS (usually /usr/lib/cups/backend).
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Now copy extra/cups-pdf.conf to /etc/cups (or whatever location you
|
||||||
|
selected in cups-pdf.h above). 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 recent distributions the "RunAsUser" option in cupsd.conf is set to
|
||||||
|
"Yes" which removes these privileges. Please make sure to set
|
||||||
|
"RunAsUser No" if you want to use CUPS-PDF.
|
||||||
|
*** Starting with version 1.2.0 CUPS implements the "RunAsOption" no
|
||||||
|
longer. 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).
|
||||||
|
*make sure if any of CUPS-PDF's working directories (e.g. output) is a
|
||||||
|
NFS mounted volume it is mounted without root_squash!
|
||||||
|
*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 make sure it does 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 after restarting CUPS you will be able to choose "Virtual Printer (PDF
|
||||||
|
Printer)" when setting up a new printer in CUPS.
|
||||||
|
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. The values are documented in cups-pdf.conf .

# HOW TO EDIT THIS FILE:
|
||||||
|
# The "handy ruler" below makes it easier to edit a package description. Line
|
||||||
|
# up the first '|' above the ':' following the base package name, and the '|' on
|
||||||
|
# the right side marks the last column you can put a character in. You must make
|
||||||
|
# exactly 11 lines for the formatting to be correct. It's also customary to
|
||||||
|
# leave one space after the ':'.
