[cups.general] Compression with CUPS

[Michael Sweet]

Ghostscript provides everything needed to convert to PDF; all you need  
to do is have a PPD that says the printer takes PDF and CUPS will  
convert to PDF first.

Remember, however, that compressing a PDF is generally not useful -  
they are compressed already...
