The PDF is also much larger than it needs to be: I did a PDF export of a 
doc that came out to about 400KB or thereabouts.  I used Win2PDF (a 
print driver for windows that generates a PDF) that came out to about 15KB.

But apart from that, I'm extremely pleased with 1.1.  I haven't tried 
CUPS or Samba options for PDF yet - I upgraded from Mandrake 8 to 
Mandrake 9 and am looking forward to trying that out.

Steve.
