It's called cups+ghostscript, there is also a cups filter floating arounds called cups-pdf which does the leg work for you. Basically cups presents a Postscript printer to the network, pick any good color postscript printer, (add samba for windows printing support and ads publishing) the client machine connects, converts the documents into Postscript for printing, but instead of going to a postscript printer it sends it to ghostscript's ps2pdf converter. You can add your own little flare to it. I had one running once that would drop the job on a Samba share and send an email with a link to it, you could do the same with Apache, use SSL if it has confidential info, make the name an md5 hash of the document, set a cron job to purge all pdfs > 24 hours old. You get the idea. -Ross ______________________________________________________________________ This e-mail, and any attachments thereto, is intended only for use by the addressee(s) named herein and may contain legally privileged and/or confidential information.
