I assume you mean kword. Yes, kword can open PDF, and modify them, but
that's not the intention. The intention is to open a PDF Form as in
Acroread, where you can only fill the fields the author left for filling,
and not being able to touch anything else. There is a special version of
acroread that allows saving the data: that's what I want, in Linux, and
free.
In fact, I just opened a test PDF in kword and the text flow was broken.
That would be unacceptable if I were to submit such a for to the
administration.
I just tried to open one of their official forms and it took two..three
minutes to open it. These things include calculations and possibly
javascript. When it finished opening it, the appearance is very far from
the correct one.

I see no cups-pdf in opensuse 10.2. Is it new in 10.3, perhaps? :-?
I have my ways to print to pdf, but that wasn't my exact question, anyway.
