V.T. Eric Layton Posted April 2, 2011 Share Posted April 2, 2011 I've been meaning to post this here, but keep forgetting. Something I needed to print tonight reminded me of it. So, here it is...If you've ever run across a .pdf that you wanted to print and the internal "lpr" command from within Xpdf just wouldn't work, I have two work-arounds for you:1) You can print the document from the command line directly. $ lpr somedoc.pdf 2) You can also open somedoc.pdf by importing it into the GIMP, then set up your page and print prefs and user the GIMP's print command (File --> Print...) to print it.Have fun.
