Hi!
I'm working in DTP studio. We take many PS jobs to print on our imagesetter.
Several jobs printed through linux/netatalk spooler aren't go well because
of cr/lf mangling doing by papd. So I maded patch that preventing papd to
change line ending and several other things like removing ctrl-d char after
EOF. This patch include better handling of large binary jobs done by one
person in this mailinglist (sorry, but forget his name). I'm using it over
a year so assume its quite stable :) and I don't seen any job refusing print
by papd.
See attachment.
