My worries about having it in multiple documents is it will get out of date. The HTML spec on the web site constantly changes.

Walter, would keeping a specification change log date, chapter, hint about the change be a excessive burden? If not, I think we could arrange to keep the PDF in sync."Alexander Klinsky" <alexander.klinsky chello.at> wrote in message news:b7c7hs$1sv7$1 digitaldaemon.com...If somebody is willing to host a 800KB PDF File containing the lastest D Specification please answer to this post and we can arrange the upload somehow.
Could you provide the (I assume DOC) source file too, so that someone can keep the PDF up to date? -- Helmut Leitner leitner hls.via.at Graz, Austria www.hls-software.com

Relying on diff is probably the only reliable way of doing this.If not, I think we could arrange to keep the PDF in sync."Alexander Klinsky" <alexander.klinsky chello.at> wrote in message news:b7c7hs$1sv7$1 digitaldaemon.com...If somebody is willing to host a 800KB PDF File containing the lastest

There is no doc file. The spec is all in .html files.

Why not write a simple program, which concatenates all of the HTML files together? This could easily be sent to a PDF printer then. There would be some things to take care of: - order in which files are concatenated. - headers and footers should be stripped. They should then be appended once for the whole document, or maybe as headers/footers in the layout system? - Table of Contents - with page numbers? As to layout system, if your HTML is reasonably well structured (well, it is fairly clean), i could try to convert it into TeX with an automatic converter. Then, TeX could take care of ToC. However, i somehow think that building HTML out of TeX is a cleaner way. -i. Walter wrote:My worries about having it in multiple documents is it will get out of date.
