An alternative to PrinceXML is http://www.realobjects.com/products/pdfreactor/
PDFreactor is a bit cheaper (3000 USD for server licence while PrinceXML cost 3800 USD). Both converters are very, very similar feature-wise and quality-wise. For an upcoming project we decided to go away from PrinceXML (which was the first-class converter for Produce & Publish so far) and use PDFreactor instead. -aj Malthe Borch-2 wrote > This is an add-on that lets you present a dynatree [1] to allow a > visitor to select subtrees of content to have formatted as a published > article: > > https://github.com/collective/collective.ebook > > Basically it works like a clickable, expandable site map.
