Thanks for that.

I DL'd it and installed & configured it but still need to test it with a form.

The instructions on their webpage were not updated for Leopard,
but I was able to get it configured via the cups interface.

I need to dig up a form from somewhere or another & try it.

I wish I'd known about it a few months ago when I needed to fill a form.
