Re: How to convert multiple pages html doc to other formats?
The person who started this thread basically wanted some
utility to join multiple html documents, and convert html
documents to various formats like pdf, ps, txt etc.
As far as the original puspose goes, I have only this much
to offer - point to <http://freshmeat.net>
and search for an utility called "htmldoc".
htmldoc-1.8.7 offers the following:
a. Conversion of html to pdf
b. Conversion of html to ps
c. Joining multiple htmls to a single large html file
Pretty nifty for a multi-platform app.
