LOL, I've found that swearing and mashing the keyboard help too.
I would suggest your reiterate your comments to me about asking authors to
retain
logical structure if they want to turn information into a work of art.
btw, whoever suggested that webkit based html to pdf converter saved me a lot
of work- I was able to drop that into an immediate problem ( I will eventually
remove the pdf component, I just needed a way to get a list of
all the resources needed by a web page and I had dug into webkit but
didn't have an easy to use front end). Thanks.
