I did it from printing Postscript/default. Then using ps2pdf from command line: [olivares@localhost Documents]$ ps2pdf fedora-people.ps [olivares@localhost Documents]$ evince fedora-people.pdf & The pdf is named fedora-people.pdf and is attached to this message. To all members in the list, I will cool down and stop getting pdf happing attaching pdf's on this thread. I apologize if It seems that I am getting carried away with my messages.
