Subject: Re: Convert MHT files to PDF

Here's a way

-- install unMHT for firefox, and disable "Memory Cached Mode" in the prefs

-- install torisugari's command line print for firefox.

-- run something like this:

firefox <mhtfile> & ln -s ~/.mozilla/firefox/<profile>/UnMHT/Cache/* 
/tmp/unmht; ln -s /tmp/unmht/0 /tmp/unmht/0.htm; firefox -print 
file:///tmp/unmht/0.htm -printmode pdf -printfile <mhtfile>.pdf; killall 
firefox

Its a hack that works like this:

        Firefox unmht decodes the mht to show in the browser, and saves a copy 
in its cache.   Then scrape its cache as html, and print as pdf.
