Hi all, I'm going to try to get the work Johannes started[1] complete so we can move to asciidoctor.
Right now the main blocker is CJK font support. You can see more details on the MR; I'm going to reach out to asciidoctor community to see if anyone has a working solution for this other than the unmaintained KaiGen Gothic package (this font doesn't even seem to be very available anymore). One question: do we really need to maintain PDF and ePUB support? I would honestly rather spend time writing documentation than working on the bugs associated with the multiple format build system, but I will keep working on it if there is a good reason to. It would not be that unusual for us to distribute the manuals in HTML form for offline viewing, and focusing only on HTML would let us get the HTML style looking good and not worry about any inconsistencies between other formats. Thoughts? I don't know the history of PDF and ePUB being offered as doc formats so I don't know if there is a good reason to offer them instead of HTML. -Jon [1] https://gitlab.com/kicad/services/kicad-doc/-/merge_requests/776
