I have grown tired of using MS Word as my standard document output format. I haven't gotten OpenOffice to work under FreeBSD (and it isn't my favourite tool by a long shot) and I am most happy generating text in vi. PDF is eminently portable, and I think that it would suit my purposes nicely.
I had some thoughts about generating PDFs, but I was hoping for advice about which tools to use. Should I just learn how to mark up a text page manually (I write HTML almost as quickly as plain text)? Should I learn TeX or some variant and translate it? I hear that PHP has some excellent PDF-generation tools; should I write up a command-line interpreter myself? Any suggestions would be appreciated. I did a bit of searching, but I didn't find any real *advice* on what process to use, and most of the tools that I found are for viewing PDFs, not writing them. Thanks. -- yours, William _______________________________________________ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
