Hi Patrick,
I already sent the scripts.

It was a hint from walter to change the printcap entry to pipe the
stream through the script via lp=|  and not invoke the if= parameter.

Until now, it seems to work.


ps2pdf|PDF-Server:\
        :bk:sh:mx#0:ml#0:\
        :lpd_bounce=true:\
        :sd=/var/spool/lpd/ps2pdf:\
        :lp=|/usr/local/bin/ps2pdf/pdfmail.pl:

Thanks !

I suspect the pdftops script is the cause of problems here.  One of the
issues with PDF is that it usually needs some temp file directory.
Can you send me the details of the pdfmail.pl script?
