Use ps2pdf to create PDFs from any Linux application

If you want to share a PDF of a web page or any other document with another person, PDF is usually the way to go. There are free PDF printers out there for Windows, but fortunately the necessary software is probably already installed on your Linux distribution. Just use ps2pdf.

First, print from your application (ie. Firefox) and make sure to check "Print to file":

Print to file

Press Print, save the file as filename.ps , and then run the following command:

$ ps2pdf filename.ps

The resulting file will be filename.pdf.

This is also a good way to convert old PS files (which can get pretty large) to the smaller PDF format. And, if for some reason you want to go the other direction, you can always use the pdf2ps utility.
