[cups.general] PDFs Do Not Print

[adfas asd]

Thanks Michael.

Ya, I have xpdf installed.  I simply don't have the
time to dissect the Debian website to figure out
where/how to file a bug.  I guess this means I am out
of luck.

Is it possible for me to install a standard pdftops? 
Which package has the bad one, and which might have a
good one?  I'll just copy over it, to survive.
