I am using the .deb I got by following the instruction in WineHQ for
Ubuntu. I don't have any "real" printer installed. But I could print to
the PDF virtual printer in all my normal applications, except that any
WINE-based application doesn't recognize it. As I mentioned before, I
cannot even open "print setup" dialog to check or modify the settings in
WINE-based applications.
