No. Gtk does its own drawing at a very low level using a library called Cairo.
Cairo gets a buffer from the OS and puts a bitmap in it and the OS displays the
bitmap. A PDF created from the bitmap would be a screenshot, not the complete
document.

If Win7 is still supported by GnuCash as a target, then I can see
keeping it, but Win10+ has had Print to PDF built-in by default.
Would it be possible to change the button to 'print' to that device on
any OS directly, bypassing Webkit for that purpose?

I think that has something to do with the mess of Webkit versions
between Mac, Win, & *nix. If I recall correctly, the button was left for
a future fix, but set to bring up the printer dialog for now which can
then use the system PDF 'printer'. Since all three operating systems now

I'm running Gnucash 5.3 on xubuntu linux.
The "Make PDF" button on the toolbar just does exactly the same as the
"Print" button, it calls up the standard printer dialogue.
How can I get
