Yup.  Just install a NEW printer, type "generic / postscript", just to
that you can "print" to it, but print to a file instead.

Hmmm... The Gimp and CUPS use the same drivers, maybe just installing
a remote printer will work?  You do File->Print on windows, it
converts it to postscript, sends it to your Linux box, which
rasterizes it and prints it, all automatically...

Hey!  The Gimp can open PDFs also.  Neat :-)
