Dumb question: does it have to involve Racket? Googling for "html 2 pdf" and "html to pdf converter" turned up a lot of hits--most of them involving PHP and Ghostscript. If you're looking at PDF-as-an-alternative-to-hardcopy (as opposed to a "real" PDF document) on Windows PDFCreator works pretty well, adding a PDF "printer." On OS X, of course, the same functionality is built-in. ____________________ Racket Users list: http://lists.racket-lang.org/users
