Posted in reply to bls | Rather than writing to PDF directly, we'd probably be better off figuring out some DDoc macros to spit out [La]TeX, then using tex2pdf to create a PDF. I'd imagine this would be less painful in the long-run.

Posted in reply to Jeff | Come to think of it, if nobody's already working on this, I'd be willing to take a shot. Anyone interested?

Feel free to start on it, the only reason I'll not doing it yet is that:
1) W hasn't distributed any source files that use only DDoc macros and
2) This is finals week here.
sometime later this week or next week, I plan to get started on a set of macros.

I guess I could do a few conversions. I was kinda hoping to get a "official" version to work with, but oh well. If I get any conversion done, I'll post the converted version for you and anyone else to use.
p.s. If anyone has converted any of the files, I would like to get a copy of it.

Just pick one or two of the files to develop the technique. Once that works, we can fix the rest.

Here is the first attack PDFs here: http://www.webpages.uidaho.edu/~shro8822/type.pdf The table environment is proving hard to deal with. Also, it's looking like Ddoc is going to need some sort of find-and-replace for escaping special strings (think SED). and here: http://www.webpages.uidaho.edu/~shro8822/glossary.pdf |
