Description Hans Meier 2005-10-19 08:08:34 UTC
In the print dialog of Adobe Reader 7, the printer command is:
/usr/bin/lp
IMHO this should be changed to:
kprinter

i guess it's not that easy, what if you are using gnome?

but i agree, maybe it's possible to change whatever the used desktop/windowmanager is.

assigned to maintainer as enhancement.
Comment 2 George Horlacher 2006-03-07 00:26:04 UTC
But why kprinter? What about people using acroread without KDE and GNOME? They
should be capable of printing as well.

It rather would make sense for KDE to make /usr/bin/lp{,r} a symlink to kprinter
then, since lp{,r} is the generic *nix way of printing.
