Package: cups-pdf
Version: 2.5.0-1
Severity: important
Cups-pdf produces rasterized text rather than embedded fonts, because of this text cannot be copy & pasted from pdf. It also results in a much larger file size.
Changing the driver to 'raw queue' on the cups-pdf device seems to return cups-pdf to its old behavior.
