Hi Haines,

Use Rick's solution. Make a PDF printer that shows up in your list of
printers when you print something. Then, whenever you want to convert a
web page to PDF, just press Ctrl+Shift+p, and a printer interaction
dialog box pops up. Choose the PDF printer and bang, you're done.

A long, long time ago I knew how to make a PDF printer from Samba. I'm
pretty sure it was in Samba Unleashed. But Rick's idea is doubtlessly
more modern and probably more reliable and doesn't require yet another
daemon.
