The program/package htmldoc works wonderfully for my taste and since it lets you use Times, Courier and Helvetica as fonts for the PS or PDF, the files generated are quite small (since these fonts are in the Base 14 set).

You've got HTML to PS. Then PS to PDF is trivial. The GS scripts require an input and output file sudo aptitude install html2ps gs-common for f in *.html do # Names of PS PDF $fpdf=$( echo $f | sed -e 's/\.html/.pdf/' ) html2ps $f - | ps2pdf - $fpdf done Note that what you get out _won't_ in all likelihood look much like the original HTML. It's going to be a largely unstyled, though if your document includes contextual markup (e.g.: h1 h2, etc.) rather than stupid box-and-font tricks, it should be highly readable and will get its own automajick ToC stuff. You won't get pretty colors and all that jazz. Oooh Unless you RTFM. Neat, I just learned some stuff :-) Peace. -- Karsten M.
