            Bug ID: 309385
          Severity: wishlist
           Version: 0.15.2
          Priority: NOR
          Assignee: okular-devel at kde.org
           Summary: Using PDF as a print job format
    Classification: Unclassified
                OS: Linux
          Reporter: maxtor11111 at gmail.com
          Hardware: Archlinux Packages
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
         Component: PDF backend
           Product: okular

Modern versions of CUPS are using PDF as a standart print job format
(http://www.linuxfoundation.org/collaborate/workgroups/openprinting/pdfasstandardprintjobformat),
but Okular still converts all PDFs to PostScript before printing. This step is
useless, furthermore, it requires some time and may break things like
transparency, which are not supported in PostScript, so Okular should print
PDFs directly, without any conversion.

Reproducible: Always




I'm using cups version 1.6.1.
