MacOS-X uses an unnatural combination of cups for printing
and its native Quartz graphics engine with pseudo display pdf.

Applications which use Apple's Text Services for Unicode
and the Quartz rendering engine can use Apple's Print dialog,
which offers options of print to paper, or to file, .ps or .pdf

I'm sorry I don't have the programming skills to compile
a version of Amaya that takes advantage of this
