[Pkg-cups-devel] Bug#523269: cups-pdf: please change default output to embedded text rather than rasterized graphics

severity 523269 wishlist
reassign 523269 cups-filters
thanks




I cannot see why the severity of this bug is "important". The cups and
cups-filters packages are intended to put ink or toner on paper so
whether the output from them leads to a searchable PDF with extractable
text appears immaterial. Wishlist at the most.

This isn't a bug in the scheduler so, although it is debatable whether
it is a bug in cups-filters either, I'll transfer this report there.
Message #197 in Bug #670055 is worth a read. It should be also be noted
that the Print to File facility exists to provide PDF output.

Regards,

Brian.
