Introduction

This document describes how to use the HTMLDOC software, version 1.8. HTMLDOC converts Hyper-Text Markup Language ("HTML") input files into indexed HTML, Adobe® PostScript®, or Adobe Portable Document Format ("PDF") files.

HTMLDOC supports most HTML 3.2 elements, some HTML 4.0 elements, and can generate a title page and table of contents pages.

HTMLDOC can be used as a standalone application, in a batch document processing environment, or as a web-based report generation application.

No restrictions are placed upon the output produced by HTMLDOC .

History

Like many programs HTMLDOC was developed in response to a need our company had for generating high-quality documentation in printed and electronic forms. For a while we used FrameMaker® and a package from sgi that generated "compiled" Standard Generalized Markup Language ("SGML") files that could be used by the Electronic Book Technologies ("EBT") documentation products (EBT is now owned by INSO.) When sgi stopped supporting these tools we turned to INSO, but the cost of their tools is prohibitive to small businesses.

In the end we decided to write our own program to generate our documentation. HTML seemed to be the source format of choice since WYSIWYG HTML editors are widely (and freely) available and at worst you can use a plain text editor. We needed HTML output for documentation on our web server, PDF for customers to read and/or print from their computers, and PostScript for our own printing needs.

The result of our efforts is the HTMLDOC software which is available for UNIX® and Microsoft® Windows®. Among other things, this software users manual is produced using HTMLDOC.

Chapter 1 - Installing HTMLDOC

This chapter describes the steps needed to install HTMLDOC on your system from any of the source or binary distributions.

Installing a Binary Distribution

HTMLDOC binary distributions are available for a number of UNIX and Windows platforms.

Requirements

HTMLDOC requires approximately 2MB of disk space and one of the following environments:

Installing HTMLDOC under Red Hat Linux

Run the following command to install HTMLDOC under Red Hat Linux:

Uninstalling HTMLDOC under Red Hat Linux

Run the following command to remove HTMLDOC from your Red Hat Linux system:

Installing HTMLDOC under UNIX

Run the following commands to install HTMLDOC under UNIX: Substitute the correct platform string as needed.

Uninstalling HTMLDOC under UNIX

Run the following command to remove HTMLDOC from your UNIX system:

Installing HTMLDOC under Windows

HTMLDOC is provided in a self-extracting installation file under Windows. Double-click on the setup icon to install HTMLDOC under Windows.

Uninstalling HTMLDOC under Windows

Open the Control Panel window and double-click on the Add/Remove Software icon. When the available software list is displayed, select HTMLDOC and click on the Remove button.

Installing HTMLDOC from the Source Distribution

The complete source to HTMLDOC is available to build HTMLDOC for different directories, architectures, or operating systems.

Requirements

HTMLDOC requires ANSI C and C++ compilers (GCC/EGCS work fine.) To build the GUI you'll also need:

Configuring the UNIX Source

HTMLDOC uses a configuration script produced by GNU autoconf to configure itself for your system. If your ANSI C compiler is not called cc or gcc, set the CC environment variable to the name and path of your ANSI C compiler: Similarly, if your C++ compiler is not called CC, gcc , c++, or g++, set the CXX environment variable to the name and path of your C++ compiler: Finally, if the FLTK library is not installed in a standard location for your compilers, set the CFLAGS, CXXFLAGS, and LDFLAGS environment variables to point to the FLTK library: Then run the following command to configure HTMLDOC for installation in the default directories: The default configuration will install HTMLDOC in the /usr/bin directory with the data files under /usr/share/htmldoc and the documentation and on-line help under /usr/share/doc/htmldoc. Use the --prefix option to change the installation prefix to /usr/local:

Compiling under UNIX

HTMLDOC is built from a Makefile in the distribution's main directory. Simply run the "make" command to build HTMLDOC: If you get any fatal errors please send a copy of the make/compiler output to " htmldoc-support@easysw.com" for assistance. Please note the version of HTMLDOC that you are using as well as any pertinent system information (operating system, OS version, compiler, etc.)

Installing under UNIX

To install HTMLDOC simply run the "make install" command as root:

Compiling with Visual C++

A Visual C++ 6.0 workspace file and associated project files are included in the source distribution under the "visualc" directory. Open the workspace file "htmldoc.dsw", adjust the FLTK include and project file locations, and then build the HTMLDOC target.

Installing with Visual C++

The Windows installation package is created using InstallShield for Visual C++ 6. The "visualc/HTMLDOC" directory contains the installation information for HTMLDOC needed to build a binary distribution with InstallShield.

To install HTMLDOC without InstallShield, create an installation directory and copy the htmldoc.exe executable, the afm directory, the data directory, and the doc directory to it.

Then use the regedit program to create the following two string entries:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Easy Software Products\HTMLDOC\data
C:\installation\directory
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Easy Software Products\HTMLDOC\doc
C:\installation\directory\doc

Chapter 2 - Getting Started

This chapter describes how to start HTMLDOC and convert HTML files into PostScript and PDF files.

Starting HTMLDOC

To start HTMLDOC under UNIX type: Choose HTMLDOC from the Start menu to start HTMLDOC under Windows.

Choosing a HTML File

The HTMLDOC window (Figure 2-1) shows the list of input files that will be converted. Start by clicking on the Web Page radio button (1) to specify you'll be converting a single HTML file.


Figure 2-1 - The HTMLDOC Window

Then choose a file for conversion by clicking on the Add Files... button (2). When the file chooser dialog appears (Figure 3), double-click on the HTML file (3) you wish to convert from the list of files.


Figure 2-2 - The File Chooser Dialog

Setting the Output File

Now that you've chosen a HTML file to convert, click on the Output tab (4) to set the output file (Figure 2-3). Type the name of the output file into the Output Path field or click on the Browse... button (5) to select the output file using the file chooser.


Figure 2-3 - The Output Tab

Generating the Document

Once you have chosen the output file you can generate it by clicking on the Generate button (6) at the bottom of the HTMLDOC window. When the conversion is completed you can open the PDF file that is produced using Adobe Acrobat Reader or any other PDF viewing application.

Chapter 3 - Generating Books

This chapter describes how to generate whole books from HTML files.

Overview

While HTMLDOC can convert web pages into PostScript and PDF files, its real strength is generating index HTML, PostScript, or PDF books.

HTMLDOC uses HTML heading elements to delineate chapters and headings in a book. The H1 element is used for chapters:

Sub-headings are marked using the H2 through H6 elements.


Figure 3-1: The Input Tab

Choosing HTML Files

Start by clicking on the Book radio button (1) to specify you'll be converting a one or more HTML files into a book.

Then choose one or more files for conversion by clicking on the Add Files... button (2). When the file chooser dialog appears, pick the file(s) you wish to convert from the list of files and then click on the OK button.

Selecting a Title Image

HTMLDOC supports generation of a title page with an image, the title text, and other META information on it. Type the title image filename into the Title Image field or click on the Browse... button (3) to select a title image for your book.


Figure 3-2: The Output Tab

Setting the Output Format

The output format is set in the Output tab (4). Click on the Output tab and then click on the HTML, PS , or PDF radio buttons to set the output format.

Setting the Output File

Now that you've chosen an output format, type the name of the output file into the Output Path field or click on the Browse... button (5) to select the output file using the file chooser.

Generating the Document

Once you have chosen the output file you can generate it by clicking on the Generate button (6) at the bottom of the HTMLDOC window.

Saving Your Book

HTMLDOC can save the list of HTML files, the title image, and all other options to a special .BOOK file so you can regenerate your book when you make changed to your HTML files.

Click on the Save button (7) to save the current book to a file.


Chapter 4 - HTMLDOC from the Command-Line

This chapter describes how to use HTMLDOC from the command-line to convert web pages and generate books.

Converting Web Pages

To convert a web page type: The "--webpage" option tells HTMLDOC that you want to convert a web page or other unstructured document.

The "-f" option tells HTMLDOC what file to generate. If you don't specify an output file then a PDF file is send to the standard output.

Generating Books

To generate a book from one or more HTML files type: The "--book" option tells HTMLDOC that you want to generate a book from the HTML file(s) you specified.

Setting the Title Image

The --titleimage sets the image to use on the title page: HTMLDOC supports GIF, JPEG, and PNG images.

Chapter 5 - Using HTMLDOC on a Web Server

This chapter describes how to interface HTMLDOC to your web server using CGI scripts and programs.

The Basics

HTMLDOC can be used in a variety of ways to generate formatted reports on a web server. The most common way is to combine HTMLDOC with a CGI script or program and send the output to the HTTP client.

To make this work the CGI script or program must send the appropriate HTTP attributes, the required empty line to signify the beginning of the document, and then execute the HTMLDOC program to generate the HTML, PostScript, or PDF file as needed.

Calling HTMLDOC from a Shell Script

Shell scripts are probably the easiest to work with, but are normally limited to GET type requests. Here is a script called topdf.cgi that will convert the named HTML file to PDF: Users of this CGI would reference the URL "http://www.domain.com/topdf.cgi?index.html" to generate a PDF file of the site's home page.

You can update the script to use the PATH_TRANSLATED environment variable so that URLs like "http://www.domain.com/cgi-bin/topdf/index.html" work as well:

Calling HTMLDOC from Perl

Perl scripts offer the ability to generate more complex reports, pull data from databases, etc. The easiest way to interface Perl scripts with HTMLDOC is to write a report to a temporary file and then execute HTMLDOC to generate the PDF file.

Here is a simple Perl subroutine that can be used to write a PDF report to the HTTP client:

Calling HTMLDOC from C

C programs offer the best flexibility and easily support on-the-fly report generation without the need for temporary files.

Here are some simple C functions that can be used to generate a PDF report to the HTTP client from a temporary file or pipe:

Comments

HTMLDOC supports three special HTML comments to initiate page breaks:
<!-- PAGE BREAK -->
Break to the next page.
<!-- NEW PAGE -->
Break to the next page.
<!-- NEW SHEET -->
Break to the next sheet.

FONT Attributes

Limited typeface specification is currently supported to ensure portability across platforms and for older PostScript printers:
Requested FontActual Font
ArialHelvetica
CourierCourier
HelveticaHelvetica
MonospaceCourier
Sans-SerifHelvetica
SerifTimes
SymbolSymbol
TimesTimes
All other unrecognized typefaces are silently ignored.

Headings

Currently HTMLDOC supports a maximum of 10000 headings and 100 chapters. These limits can be increased by changing the constants in the config.h file included with the source code.

All chapters start with a top-level heading (H1) markup. Any headings within a chapter must be of a lower level (H2 to H6). Each chapter starts a new page or the next odd-numbered page if duplexing is selected.

The headings you use within a chapter must start at level 2 (H2). If you skip levels the heading will be shown under the last level that was known. For example, if you use the following hierarchy of headings:

the table-of-contents that is generated will show:

Numbered Headings

When the numbered headings option is enabled, HTMLDOC recognizes the following additional attributes for all heading elements:
VALUE="#"
Specifies the starting value for this heading level (default is "1" for all new levels).
TYPE="1"
Specifies that decimal numbers should be generated for this heading level.
TYPE="a"
Specifies that lowercase letters should be generated for this heading level.
TYPE="A"
Specifies that uppercase letters should be generated for this heading level.
TYPE="i"
Specifies that lowercase roman numerals should be generated for this heading level.
TYPE="I"
Specifies that uppercase roman numerals should be generated for this heading level.

Links

Currently HTMLDOC supports a maximum of 20000 links within a document. This limit can be increased by changing the constant in the config.h file included with the source code.

External URL links are fully supported for HTML and PDF output, and internal links (#target and filename.html) are supported in HTML and PDF output.

When generating PDF files, local PDF file links will be converted to external file links for the PDF viewer instead of URL links. That is, you can directly link to another local PDF file from your HTML document with:

META Attributes

HTMLDOC supports the following META attributes for the title page and document information:
<META NAME="AUTHOR" CONTENT="..."
Specifies the document author.
<META NAME="COPYRIGHT" CONTENT="..."
Specifies the document copyright.
<META NAME="DOCNUMBER" CONTENT="..."
Specifies the document number.
<META NAME="GENERATOR" CONTENT="..."
Specifies the application that generated the HTML file.

Page Breaks

HTMLDOC supports three new page comments to specify page breaks. In addition, the older BREAK attribute is still supported by the HR element: Support for the BREAK attribute is deprecated and will be removed in a future release of HTMLDOC.

Tables

Currently HTMLDOC supports a maximum of 100 columns and 1000 rows within a single table. These limits can be increased by changing the constants in the config.h file included with the source code. HTMLDOC supports HTML 3.0 tables with the following exceptions:

Chapter 7 - GUI Reference

This chapter describes all of the GUI controls in HTMLDOC.

The HTMLDOC GUI

The HTMLDOC GUI (Figures 7-1 through 7-9) is contained in a single window showing the input, output, and generation options. At the bottom are buttons to load, save, and generate documents.

Chapter 8 - Command-Line Reference

This chapter describes all of the command-line options supported by HTMLDOC.

Basic Usage

The basic command-line usage for HTMLDOC is: The first form converts the named HTML files to the specified output format immediately. The second form loads the specified .book file and displays the HTMLDOC window, allowing a user to make changes and/or generate the document interactively.

If no output file or directory is specified, then all output is sent to the standard output file.

Options

The following command-line options are recognized by HTMLDOC.

-d directory

The -d option specifies an output directory for the document files.

This option is not compatible with the PDF output format.

Appendix A - GNU General Public License

GNU GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE
Version 2, June 1991

Copyright (C) 1989, 1991 Free Software Foundation, Inc.
59 Temple Place - Suite 330, Boston, MA 02111-1307, USA
Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies of this license document, but changing it is not allowed.

GNU GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE
TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR COPYING, DISTRIBUTION AND MODIFICATION

0. This License applies to any program or other work which contains a notice placed by the copyright holder saying it may be distributed under the terms of this General Public License. The "Program", below, refers to any such program or work, and a "work based on the Program" means either the Program or any derivative work under copyright law: that is to say, a work containing the Program or a portion of it, either verbatim or with modifications and/or translated into another language. (Hereinafter, translation is included without limitation in the term "modification".) Each licensee is addressed as "you".

Activities other than copying, distribution and modification are not covered by this License; they are outside its scope. The act of running the Program is not restricted, and the output from the Program is covered only if its contents constitute a work based on the Program (independent of having been made by running the Program). Whether that is true depends on what the Program does.

1. You may copy and distribute verbatim copies of the Program's source code as you receive it, in any medium, provided that you conspicuously and appropriately publish on each copy an appropriate copyright notice and disclaimer of warranty; keep intact all the notices that refer to this License and to the absence of any warranty; and give any other recipients of the Program a copy of this License along with the Program.

You may charge a fee for the physical act of transferring a copy, and you may at your option offer warranty protection in exchange for a fee.

2. You may modify your copy or copies of the Program or any portion of it, thus forming a work based on the Program, and copy and distribute such modifications or work under the terms of Section 1 above, provided that you also meet all of these conditions:

These requirements apply to the modified work as a whole. If identifiable sections of that work are not derived from the Program, and can be reasonably considered independent and separate works in themselves, then this License, and its terms, do not apply to those sections when you distribute them as separate works. But when you distribute the same sections as part of a whole which is a work based on the Program, the distribution of the whole must be on the terms of this License, whose permissions for other licensees extend to the entire whole, and thus to each and every part regardless of who wrote it.

Thus, it is not the intent of this section to claim rights or contest your rights to work written entirely by you; rather, the intent is to exercise the right to control the distribution of derivative or collective works based on the Program.

In addition, mere aggregation of another work not based on the Program with the Program (or with a work based on the Program) on a volume of a storage or distribution medium does not bring the other work under the scope of this License.

3. You may copy and distribute the Program (or a work based on it, under Section 2) in object code or executable form under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above provided that you also do one of the following:

The source code for a work means the preferred form of the work for making modifications to it. For an executable work, complete source code means all the source code for all modules it contains, plus any associated interface definition files, plus the scripts used to control compilation and installation of the executable. However, as a special exception, the source code distributed need not include anything that is normally distributed (in either source or binary form) with the major components (compiler, kernel, and so on) of the operating system on which the executable runs, unless that component itself accompanies the executable.

If distribution of executable or object code is made by offering access to copy from a designated place, then offering equivalent access to copy the source code from the same place counts as distribution of the source code, even though third parties are not compelled to copy the source along with the object code.

4. You may not copy, modify, sublicense, or distribute the Program except as expressly provided under this License. Any attempt otherwise to copy, modify, sublicense or distribute the Program is void, and will automatically terminate your rights under this License. However, parties who have received copies, or rights, from you under this License will not have their licenses terminated so long as such parties remain in full compliance.

5. You are not required to accept this License, since you have not signed it. However, nothing else grants you permission to modify or distribute the Program or its derivative works. These actions are prohibited by law if you do not accept this License. Therefore, by modifying or distributing the Program (or any work based on the Program), you indicate your acceptance of this License to do so, and all its terms and conditions for copying, distributing or modifying the Program or works based on it.

6. Each time you redistribute the Program (or any work based on the Program), the recipient automatically receives a license from the original licensor to copy, distribute or modify the Program subject to these terms and conditions. You may not impose any further restrictions on the recipients' exercise of the rights granted herein. You are not responsible for enforcing compliance by third parties to this License.

7. If, as a consequence of a court judgment or allegation of patent infringement or for any other reason (not limited to patent issues), conditions are imposed on you (whether by court order, agreement or otherwise) that contradict the conditions of this License, they do not excuse you from the conditions of this License. If you cannot distribute so as to satisfy simultaneously your obligations under this License and any other pertinent obligations, then as a consequence you may not distribute the Program at all. For example, if a patent license would not permit royalty-free redistribution of the Program by all those who receive copies directly or indirectly through you, then the only way you could satisfy both it and this License would be to refrain entirely from distribution of the Program.

If any portion of this section is held invalid or unenforceable under any particular circumstance, the balance of the section is intended to apply and the section as a whole is intended to apply in other circumstances.

It is not the purpose of this section to induce you to infringe any patents or other property right claims or to contest validity of any such claims; this section has the sole purpose of protecting the integrity of the free software distribution system, which is implemented by public license practices. Many people have made generous contributions to the wide range of software distributed through that system in reliance on consistent application of that system; it is up to the author/donor to decide if he or she is willing to distribute software through any other system and a licensee cannot impose that choice.

This section is intended to make thoroughly clear what is believed to be a consequence of the rest of this License.

8. If the distribution and/or use of the Program is restricted in certain countries either by patents or by copyrighted interfaces, the original copyright holder who places the Program under this License may add an explicit geographical distribution limitation excluding those countries, so that distribution is permitted only in or among countries not thus excluded. In such case, this License incorporates the limitation as if written in the body of this License.

9. The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new versions of the General Public License from time to time. Such new versions will be similar in spirit to the present version, but may differ in detail to address new problems or concerns.

Each version is given a distinguishing version number. If the Program specifies a version number of this License which applies to it and "any later version", you have the option of following the terms and conditions either of that version or of any later version published by the Free Software Foundation. If the Program does not specify a version number of this License, you may choose any version ever published by the Free Software Foundation.

10. If you wish to incorporate parts of the Program into other free programs whose distribution conditions are different, write to the author to ask for permission. For software which is copyrighted by the Free Software Foundation, write to the Free Software Foundation; we sometimes make exceptions for this. Our decision will be guided by the two goals of preserving the free status of all derivatives of our free software and of promoting the sharing and reuse of software generally.

NO WARRANTY

11. BECAUSE THE PROGRAM IS LICENSED FREE OF CHARGE, THERE IS NO WARRANTY FOR THE PROGRAM, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW. EXCEPT WHEN OTHERWISE STATED IN WRITING THE COPYRIGHT HOLDERS AND/OR OTHER PARTIES PROVIDE THE PROGRAM "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. THE ENTIRE RISK AS TO THE QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE OF THE PROGRAM IS WITH YOU. SHOULD THE PROGRAM PROVE DEFECTIVE, YOU ASSUME THE COST OF ALL NECESSARY SERVICING, REPAIR OR CORRECTION.

12. IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR AGREED TO IN WRITING WILL ANY COPYRIGHT HOLDER, OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO MAY MODIFY AND/OR REDISTRIBUTE THE PROGRAM AS PERMITTED ABOVE, BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR DAMAGES, INCLUDING ANY GENERAL, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF THE USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE PROGRAM (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO LOSS OF DATA OR DATA BEING RENDERED INACCURATE OR LOSSES SUSTAINED BY YOU OR THIRD PARTIES OR A FAILURE OF THE PROGRAM TO OPERATE WITH ANY OTHER PROGRAMS), EVEN IF SUCH HOLDER OR OTHER PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.

END OF TERMS AND CONDITIONS
