Hello,What's the suggested PDF generator in Debian (without desktop)? And is there a VIM plugin for that?
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.pdfIt even supports colors but the syntax is weird enough such that it is not useful without additional documentation (I did not document it yet...).
