Textile / RedCloth to PDF converter?

Ruby
1

Hey there,

I am currently looking for a good / stable way to create .pdf-files out
of a textile formated text. Does anyone know whether someone already
wrote a textile => e.g. PDF::Writer library? Or is there any other
reliable way that allows me to create a pdf-file including the
formating of the original formatted text?

Cheers & thanks,
-Joerg

I have this in a file called textile2pdf. Not sure where it came from:

pdf=basename $1 .txt.pdf

redcloth $1 |
sed -e “s/’/'/” |
htmldoc --cont --format pdf14 - >basename $1 .txt.pdf

htmldoc is availble here:

John,

thanks! I was looking for a somewhat more ‘integrated’ way, but it
seems this isn’t something that has been created yet.

thanks and all the best,
