2nd Request One-Stop Print-To-PDF

[alex bueno]

I'm not sure I see the need for this either.

OW does have a shortcut (shift+option+cmd+s, which you can see in the  
file menu by holding the option key) that saves the current page to  
PDF. This though doesn't seem to go through the printing mechanism; I  
think it just dumps OW's rendering of the page into a one-page PDF --  
often a one very long PDF not suitable for printing or viewing. But  
the keystroke is about as (perhaps more) useful than a toolbar button.

Incidentally, has anyone managed to applescript printing to PDF. I'd  
love to be able to dump all tabs of a browser into a folder as PDFs.  
I tried using GUI scripting and I couldn't get it manage all the  
dialogs (not that I'm a script guru or anything ...)
