pelican-plugins / pdf Goto Github PK

Dear Folks,

This is not an issue with the plugin but with the documentation.

The text rst2pdf documentation in the README points to the link http://rst2pdf.ralsina.me/handbook.html#styles which does not exist.

I think the link should be https://rst2pdf.org/static/manual.html#styles which is the official rst2pdf site as far as I can tell.

I'd used a pdf pelican-plugin in the past to export articles to pdf, that was last year, I can't remember & can't recover which versions of python/pelican/pdf plugin I used then. I'm trying to modify->re-build/re-generate and with these versions: Python 3.8/Pelican 4.2.0/pelican pdf master 8596c54a6e4d5/xhtml2pdf 0.2.5, I can't, getting this error:

CRITICAL: partially initialized module 'xhtml2pdf.util' has no attribute 'get_default_asian_font' (most likely due to a circular import)

With a cursory search, I couldn't find version combinations that would work. Any known incompatibilities in using that plugin ?

Hi, I'd like to generate a documentation site with pdf versions of each article linked from the html page, is this possible using this plugin? Thanks!

I am writing a blog in serbian, and there are weird characters in the resulting PDFs.

In the article: Šta ćeš sve pročitati

In the PDF: Šta ■eš sve pro■itati

Is there anything to do to fix this problem?

Hi, there's an old version still in pelican-plugins, which makes it difficult if you need to use something from there.
Should it be deleted, or this added as submodule?

sorry, but since hours I am trying to figure out the cause of the problem...
Using Python 3.11
Pelican 4.9.1

First I want to mention: As a new user to pelican and specially usage of this and other plugins: The information of readme files are really poor:
After installation you have to add the plugin to pelicanconf.py -> PLUGINS = [..., "pdf",...]. What's the problem to add this peace of information?
After running 'pelican content' I am running into error:
ERROR You need xhtml2pdf installed to use the raw HTML directive. log.py:94
...

But it is installed (requirements.txt):
xhtml2pdf==0.2.15

In the folder /../output/pdf/

there are PDF-files, but only one page with the title and date...

It is not the first plugin running into errors and searching for solutions... If there were a little more detailed instructions, beginners like me would run into fewer problems...
