  • New print dialogue

    From Jeff Barnett@21:1/5 to All on Thu Feb 25 22:40:18 2021
    I just updated to FF 86.0, 64 bit, and think the new print dialogue
    looks much better and seems to do a decent job on many pages that failed
    in the past. However, the description of print (in the blurb shown the
    first time I loaded FF after the update) shows a print to pdf that isn't visible in whatever the updater downloaded. How is that enabled? Is an
    addon involved? If so, is that addon supported by Mozilla or is this a capability that relies entirely on an outsider for continued support?

    It's one of the options on the Destination dropdown menu where
    you choose where the print is to be sent.

    When you actually do it a file-save dialog comes up (at least it
    does for me, but maybe that's because I have downloads always
    ask me where they should be put).

    Jeremy Nicoll - my opinions are my own.
