8 years ago Let's try this:
- I would like to strongly encourage the tX team to cease and desist all work with LaTeX or any derivative for PDF generation. Instead, I would like them to prove that piping USFM -> HTML -> ElectronPDF (https://fraserxu.me/2015/08/20/pdf-generation-on-the-web/) with a print-optimized CSS stylesheet does not meet most/all of our needs. It was created by a guy who needed to print Burmese so he knows non-Roman scripts. updated installer info here: http://electron.atom.io/blog/2016/08/16/npm-install-electron
- here’s a good test page for complex scripts, including text demos with corresponding images to show how they should render: http://scripts.sil.org/cms/scripts/page.php?site_id=projects&item_id=graphite_fontdemo
Story
As a user I want to get a PDF from my Door43 project page so that I can download, use, edit and/or share the resource offline.
