RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Fixed In Version: cups-filters-1.28.7-13.el9
Doc Type: Enhancement
Doc Text:
.Generic LF-to-CRLF driver is available in `cups-filters` With this enhancement, you can now use the Generic LF-to-CRLF driver, which converts LF characters to CR+LF characters for printers accepting files with CR+LF characters. The carriage return (CR) and line feed (LF) are control characters that mark the end of lines. As a result, by using this driver, you can send an LF character terminated file from your application to a printer accepting only CR+LF characters. The Generic LF-to-CRLF driver is a renamed version of the `text-only` driver from RHEL 7. The new name reflects its actual functionality.

Description Zdenek Dohnal 2023-08-07 16:26:29 UTC 
Some users installed this driver to do LF -> CRLF conversion on non-text files and do not have any other alternative driver to do this.

So I will rename the driver to reflect its usage (there is texttotext filter for real text -> text conversion). This driver will be covered by Legacy printer application from pappl-retrofit in the future.
