Thank you for your bug report, that's up to the software to define the default title. What webbrowser do you use?

Thanks. I did not find such package as gtkpdf...

Firefox.
But the same happens when printing from Thunderbird.

I think, the default shall be either the document title (website, email, office) or file name.

But the program simply uses: output.pdf

Is there a configuration file to change that?

the issue is with those applications, e.g gedit uses the title of the current document as filename, it's up to the application to define the behaviour
