html2ps
Hi, Debians: I have a question about html2ps that is I just install it under my usr/local directory and then I use the command html2ps filename.html filename.ps however, it report the following warning message: can not find the file and /usr/local/lib/html2ps/html2psrc and then it just convert the first page of my html file. Does anybody know how to fix this problem? (As for the installation, I just download the compressed file from internet and then launch the install command). Thanks for your help1 Nianwei _ Get Your Private, Free E-mail from MSN Hotmail at http://www.hotmail.com. Share information about yourself, create your own public profile at http://profiles.msn.com.

Does anybody know how to fix this problem? Try the Debian package instead of your own unconfigured installation. /etc/html2psrc is a configuration file.

Does anybody know how to fix this problem? I've had my own problem with this package, namely that rendered pages typically don't include page breaks. Instead, I end up with a tiny ribbon of very small text ...down the middle of a page. Essentially, an entire web page is being fit to a single logical sheet of paper, and where the web page would tend to span many logical sheets, it's condensed to one. Anyone else seen this or have a fix? -- Karsten M.

html2ps
Hello everybody, Somebody probably encountered this problem before. You download a manual from the Internet but this manual is in html format or better you get 100 or 200 html files. You have to browse this manual with a html viewer (netscape). This browsing through the online manual is usefull but I would also like a paper version of the manual. So, I found that with html2ps you can convert html to ps. This is interesting but I don't like to do this for every file separately. I would rather like to issue one command to create the complete manual (in ps format) at once. Can anybody help my with this?? Greetings, Stefan

printing debian web page using html2ps
The design spec for dpkgv2, aka the Herring Package Management Library (HPML), is available for our browsing pleasure at http://www.debian.org/~bcollins/hpml; specifying precisely that URL does bring up the proper web page on my web browser. If I am interpreting the html2ps documentation correctly, giving the shell command html2ps www.debian.org/~bcollins/hpml, perhaps with an argument of -W b, should produce a postscript rendition of that html code. But when I try that, I get the error message *** Error opening www.debian.org/~bcollins/hpml, Error: /nocurrentpoint in --currentpoint-- [followed by gs stack trace data] and various plausible variations on the URL just give corresponding variations on the error message. Does anyone know how to make html2ps work on that web page, including its hyperlinked children? TIA Keith
