Bug Description
Binary package hint: firefox-3.0
Ubuntu - Hardy
Application - Firefox 3, print to PDF
If you print a page, with <title>x</title> and print another page with the same title, fhe second file overwrites the first one with the same name.
I expect something like another filename or a selection field "overwrite Yes/no"

This is not a bug in firefox, it is a bug in the pdf printer.
The pdf printer automatically overwrites current pdf files with new ones if they have the same name.
It even does this if they have different extensions.
e.g. file.txt, file.log, file.odt etc.
These would all overwrite each other if printed to pdf.
This is true on Hardy Heron.
I will try and point this bug at the gnome-print package as well. (not sure whether I will be able to though)
