For cases where I care little about font or formatting, I use VIM's
integrated hardcopy:
:ha > /tmp/print.ps
:!ps2pdf /tmp/print.ps /tmp/print.pdf
Find the printable PDF in /tmp/print.pdf afterwards.
When I want to use a custom font and zoom settings, I follow a
transformation of Text -> HTML -> wkhtmltopdf using a script (attached as
`ascii2pdf.sh`). Requires `wkhtmltopdf` and `texlive-fonts-extra` (you can
avoid that by changing the font file in the script).
To test it, you can run it on itself to produce a file `print.pdf`
./ascii2pdf.sh ascii2pdf.sh print.pdf
It even supports colors but the syntax is weird enough such that it is not
useful without additional documentation (I did not document it yet...).
Hi
If I want to convert some excel files to PDF, what's the suggested way? I know I can program with java to implement that, but if there are existing command-line solutions I would like to try them.
Thanks.
