That depends on what you're using to create PDFs.
If you're using RiScript or ps2pdf, set it to 'File' and use the pop-up
save box to the right of the field to save the PS file on to your hard
disc somewhere. You'll then need to take that file after printing to it,
and drag it to RiScript or ps2pdf.
If you're using PrintPDF, set it to 'File' and drag the PS icon from the
pop-up save box to the PrintPDF iconbar icon (load PrintPDF first, of
course).
If you're using something else, then I don't know -- but it will almost
certainly involve the 'File' connection.

Have you changed anything in Printers recently? Or changed anything in
!Boot?
