I use Google Mail and to a certain extent Google Docs, if only to view attachments. HOwever when I view a PDF attachment and then click on Print (in Google Docs and not the browser) it just opens a "Save As" dialogue instead of a print dialogue. I have tried searching for a solution.

Any ideas?

the print option in google docs actually generates a PDF file which you then have to print in a conventional manner. So the Save As dialog is asking you where you want the generated PDF saving. You would then have to open the PDF and print it.

Yes, I know!

If I didn't laugh I'd cry. Google do some stuff so well and then…this??!

Cheers anyway
