[ale] How to get WYSIWYG printing w/ Firefox 3.5.2 ....

[Asher Vilensky]

When you print (anything) from a Mac, you have the option to "print" it to a
PDF file.  Not sure about any other OS's.  Just wanted to mention it to make
others aware that you CAN do it, depends on the OS.
Now I tried it on FF in my Ubuntu VM.  A PDF option exists there too.
