Install a PDF printer in 30 seconds on Ubuntu

Installing a PDF printer on Ubuntu will take no more than half minute:

  • open a Terminal (search Terminal in the Menu or CTRL+ALT+T)
  • type sudo apt-get install cups-pdf, then press Enter
  • insert your password to allow installation (it will seem you're not typing for security reasons), then press Enter again
  • wait until the installation finishes
You can now print your documents to PDF files choosing the printer named "PDF"; they will be saved by default in the folder PDF in your home.
