HTML 2 PDF in Landscape

barbie on 2004-12-02T11:50:30

The slides for my talks are all HTML in landscape. For YAPC::Europe in Belfast, I tried to get them imported into a PDF document, but it was really traumatic. I tried OOPS (which doesn't appear to exist anymore), which although worked really well for potrait pages, wouldn't do landscape, even though there are configuration settings to supposedly allow you to do it, it never worked :(

Can anyone recommend an easy way to collect all my landscape HTML slides together into a single PDF document? I would prefer an automated process, in case I have to re-run this quickly.

Try Acrobat

I used Adobe Acrobat from Powerpoint... ofcourse both on Windows.

Why not all in one html file?

As a standards compliant slideshow?

Definitely got my vote. I did some slides of my own with a past version of S5, and I can only say it's excellent.

FOP?

Depending on the number of tags you use, an XSL stylesheet to convert the thing to xsl-fo, then just call fop ( http://xml.apache.org/fop ) to render it?

Then have a nice wash to get rid of that dirty java feeling... ;)
