           Summary: dcop konqueror  print true does not work
           Product: konqueror
           Version: 4.4.0
          Platform: unspecified
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: konq-bugs@kde.org
        ReportedBy: bugkde@odinak.com

I am using konq in a script to faithfully convert html to pdf. I can almost
automate the entire process except that I have to let it bring the print dialog
and click the print button.  If send the dcop command to automatically print,
it does not work.  

The broken dcop command is:

dcop konqueror-${KONQPID} html-widget1 print true

Here's the complete script:

#!/bin/bash
#
# syntax: khtml2pdf <htmlfile> <pdffile>
HTMLFILE="$1"
PDFFILE="$2"
TMPDIR="${TMP}/khtml2pdf.$$"
KONQRC="${HOME}/.kde/share/config/konquerorrc"
rm -rf ${TMPDIR}
mkdir -p ${TMPDIR}
mv -f ${KONQRC} ${KONQRC}.sav
cat > ${KONQRC} <<EOD

[KPrinter Settings]
ApplicationOptions=app-khtml-printfriendly,false,app-khtml-printheader,true,app-khtml-printimages,true
DialogReduced=false
DocDirectory[\$e]=${TMPDIR}
PrintCommand[\$e]=
Printer=Print to File (PDF)

EOD
konqueror --sync ${HTMLFILE} >/dev/null 2>&1 &
KONQPID=$!
sleep 2
# to completely automate this one should pass true as the last argument
# to the line below.  however, there seems to be a bug in kde where if
# you pass true it forgets to pass the value of the Printer= setting to
# cpusdoprint.  this bug seems to have been there for a few years!?
dcop konqueror-${KONQPID} html-widget1 print false
sleep 2
dcop konqueror-${KONQPID} konqueror-mainwindow#1 close
mv -f ${TMPDIR}/print.pdf ${PDFFILE}
mv -f ${KONQRC}.sav ${KONQRC}
rm -rf ${TMPDIR}
