Source-reported description

The fullest retained description is shown with its source. Distribution packaging descriptions may include downstream details.

"cups-pdf" is a backend script for use with CUPS - the "Common UNIX Printing System" (see more for CUPS under https://www.cups.org/). "cups-pdf" uses the ghostscript pdfwrite device to produce PDF Files. This version has been modified to store the PDF files on the Desktop of the user. This behavior can be changed by editing the configuration file.
