It's all pretty much the default stuff, except for the required libs and the fonts. If you don't have the -devel packages, you get weird errors while compiling that don't show exactly what is missing.
To generate A4 output, add
@PJL SET PAPER=A4 to the pcl input file.

David,
Hello, my name is Cristian Guerrero Rojas. I'm from Buenos Aires, Argentina. I write to you for one purpose: to say thank you for this page. It is such a useful page that it helped me a lot for my job.
I'm very grateful. Thanks a lot. And congratulations, because it was easy to folow the steps you wrote.
Thanks again,
Cristian.
Hi Christian,
Thanks for your message. I'm glad my post was useful to you! :-)

This was just wonderful. I was trying to compile this on Ubuntu 10.10 and was having problems. I found this and was able to hack it a bit and get everything working.
You saved me a LOT of time trying to track down header files!
Have you considered telling Artifex about this?
Again -- you've saved me a lot of time and frustration -- THANK YOU.
