@chase: I've now added a readme.pdf (just a copy of readme.md) to the source folder - would be crazy cool if it was included in all them zip files
That should be a quick fix. We'll see if I'm right, haha.
Oh jeese. I just realized how HUGE that Readme.pdf is. 3 MB is a little hefty to be added to every file.
Honest question, could we just use HTML instead?
I was thinking of using https://github.com/mixu/markdown-styles to generate the HTML. Then I could make a script that merges all the CSS and inlines the images with https://github.com/jrit/web-resource-inliner
In the meantime though, I've used markdown-styles to make the HTML, then I opened it up in Chrome removed the padding on the article element, printed it as a PDF, then ran it through smallpdf.com
Same contents but now it only comes in at 161K.
I just generated it automatically without looking at the size. Agreed it's way to huge.
Didn't know about markdown styles. Looks great, especially if circleCI could handle it. In the mean time I'd say we just link to the web page to keep things as simple as possible.
As mentioned in another issue it'd be great to:
