Author Adding new backend/URI to CUPS?

This *has* to be some kind of FAQ somewhere/somehow, but *cannot* seem to
locate an answer out there. If somebody wants to point me in the right
direction rather than post one here, I'd be just as happy...

OK...FC4, I'm trying to add a new backend to CUPS to print to (what else?)
PDF.

I drop the backend into /var/lib/cups/backend, restart the daemon, and I
don't seem to be able to point a printer toward it. I thought the proper
format was:

pdf:/path/to/tmp/file

....but I get client-error-not-possible.

Help?
