2005-07-08 -+- Michael Vishchers -+- mvishchers@psi.de -+- Have been wondering for some time what the problem with acroread and kprinter was... Thanks for the solution! <br> <br>Anyway, why waste time and /tmp space? Hardlinking the original file to a temporary name works, too (of course, it's Linux !-) <br> <br>#!/bin/sh <br># save this as /usr/local/bin/printerScript <br># and make it executable with: chmod 755 /usr/local/bin/printerScript <br>## create temporary file <br>tmp="$1_.$$.ps" <br>[ -f "$tmp" ] && exit 1 <br>## link the file to a new name which will not be deleted by acroread. <br>## the first argument is the file name of the postscript file <br>ln  "$1"  $tmp <br>## start the KDE printer frontend on this file <br>kprinter  $tmp <br>## clean up afterwards <br>rm -f     $tmp <br>## <br> -+- 192.109.111.124 = Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; de-AT; rv:1.7.8) Gecko/20050513 Debian/1.7.8-1
2005-07-08 -+- James D Freels -+- freelsjd@ornl.gov -+- I tried this and it did not work.  I received the following error message from kprinter: <br> <br>Error while reading filter description for true. Empty command line received. <br> <br>Also, as an alternative workaround for this problem, I have been using xpp that does not have this same problem.  However, I would prefer kprinter if we can get this isssue resolved. -+- 160.91.145.10 = Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; X11; Linux i686; en) Opera 8.02

2005-07-28 -+- Danny -+-   -+- I was able to get kprinter working without the script. Just do /usr/bin/kprinter -c. The -c option makes an internal copy of the files to print. -+- 208.20.220.72 = Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.7.10) Gecko/20050716 Firefox/1.0.6
