That would require me to have cups running which I otherwise don't need
at all: huge waste of resources.

BTW, how would I control where cups puts the pdf files it creates?  Could
I do something like 'cat textfile.org | lpr -PPDF -o output.pdf' --- and
preferably something equivalent inside a perl script?
