[Wikisource-l] Wiki to LaTeX (and PDF) converter

Hello, Also interesting for WS. Yann -------- Original Message -------- Subject: [Textbook-l] Wiki to LaTeX (and PDF) converter Date: Fri, 29 Feb 2008 11:19:26 +0100 From: Derbeth <derbeth @ wp.pl> Reply-To: Wikimedia textbook discussion &lt;textbook-l(a)lists.wikimedia.org&gt; To: textbook-l(a)lists.wikimedia.org I have created an improved version of Hagindaz's Wiki2LaTeX (http://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/User:Hagindaz/Wiki2LaTeX) tool, which helps creating PDF versions of books. It can download the whole book with images and automatically generate LaTeX source code, which can be directly translated into a PDF file. Still, some knowledge of LaTeX is required, but the tool can greatly reduce time of preparing PDF version of a textbook. Currently it supports output in two languages (Polish and English), but adding support for new ones is quite easy. The description of the program can be found at http://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/User:Derbeth/javaLatex. Example output is here: http://pl.wikibooks.org/wiki/Grafika:C.pdf. -- Derbeth Jabber id: derbeth(a)jabber.wp.pl Wikisłownik to więcej niż słownik!
