In fact the Firefox print dialog does not seem to work at all like the print dialog in other Gnome applications:
Example: 1. In Firefox, the default file type is PostScript, while in Gedit it is PDF. 2. In Firefox the default file name is empty ".ps", while in Gedit it is "print.pdf". 3. In Firefox, the print dialog does not remember any settings unlike the dialog in Gedit. If you for example choose in the Firefox dialog to make a two-sided print, nothing of it is left when you restart Firefox. In Gedit every change to any optio is saved - if you once choose to e.g. make a two-sided print, all prints will be two-sided until the option is changed again. In my opinion Firefox should implement the print dialog in the same way as other Gnome/GTK apps do. The behaviour of e.g. Gedit is more correct and closer to the principles for example described in the Gnome User Interface Guidelines. -- Printing to PDF/PS/SVG defaults to a hidden (.name) filename https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/488857 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
