+Thanks for the quick response - I posted to -dev only because I use only
+Cauldron on my machines to help with testing, and I though -discuss was
+more aimed at released versions (like Mageia 1)
+
+On a similar note, what ever happened to a standard PDF printer setup in
+the mcc (printerdrake is gone I believe) . . . When I choose set up
+printers, I can only add physical and networked printers, but no option
+to add a PDF printer. It was very helpful to have a generic PDF printer
+driver setup as a virtual printer (like PDFcreator)
+
+Anyway, I digress . . . . Thanks again.
