http://d.puremagic.com/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=9376 Summary: Improve LaTeX -> PDF generation for the language spec Product: D Version: D2 Platform: All OS/Version: All Status: NEW Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: DMD AssignedTo: nobody@puremagic.com ReportedBy: andrei@erdani.com --- Comment #0 from Andrei Alexandrescu <andrei@erdani.com> 2013-01-22 23:12:29 PST --- I just made PDF generation via LaTeX work. To build the PDF, go to the d-programming-language.org project on github and run make LATEST=2.061 `pwd`/web/dlangspec.pdf Compilation proceeds without error, however the generated PDF has a lot of issues. A few the come to mind: * there are still quite a few hardcoded HTML tags in source that need to be replaced with macros. Warning, the section headers should be bumped by one, e.g. <h2>xyz</h2> becomes $(H3 xyz). * tables need a fair amount of tuning and adjustment * a lot of code is in bold $(B xyz), but should be $(D xyz). * Probably some HTML escapes &xyz; are still hiding somewhere * Need to use the new ESCAPES macro recently introduced -- Configure issuemail: http://d.puremagic.com/issues/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- |

Requires good command of both ddoc and latex. -- Configure issuemail: http://d.puremagic.com/issues/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- |
