I thought this was easy, but it turns out to be not so obvious. My problem: I have a database with hour registration. I need to print out about hundreds of pages and have them signed by employees. Of course I want to do this automatically. Up to now I have a collection of html pages (got them using wget). So the final thing I want is to print them all out in one go. How to do that? I search for a command-line option to convert the html to pdf. Or have firefox/konqueror print them directly without user intervention (there is not a switch like "firefox --print <url>"). Note that the pages are off-line, not on the server. The original pages can only retrieved with after authorization. That's why I used wget with a saved session cookie. Anyone got an simple solution?
Doesn't sending the HTML content to 'lpr' Just Work? I would've thought all the Foomatic filtering magic would've known what to do with HTML, though I don't have a Linux box setup for printing here. Otherwise, look for html2pdf or html2ps. Will. _______________________________________________ CentOS mailing list CentOS@xxxxxxxxxx http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
