ubuntu print to pdf
i very rarely print out hard copies and i dislike having to search thru stacks of paper. so the majority of the time i prefer to keep things in digital form.
for windows, i’ve been familiar with pdfcreator for quite some time. pdfcreator creates a printer object in windows that you can “print” documents to and then they’re output as pdf files. recently, i was wondering if linux had anything similar. it turns out that, yes, there is a very similar approach in linux. in ubuntu, install the package named cups-pdf and you’ll have a pdf printer up in running in less than a minute.
