Hi folks:
Publican 3.1 is now out. It's mostly a bugfix release with very few
changes that are visible to most users.
Probably the most significant issues resolved this time are related to
PDF generation. Previously, the PDFs produced by wkhtmltopdf had some
interesting quirks, like internal links that dumped you in the middle of
sections or chapters instead of the beginning, and admonitions and other
cruft that crept into the table of contents displayed by PDF viewers.
These and other quirks are now fixed, and a few enhancements to the PDF
structure (better-defined covers and titlepages) have been added. You
can find a full list of the changes below.
The source RPM is available from:
https://fedorahosted.org/releases/p/u/publican/publican-3.1.0-2.el6.src.rpm
I hope to have this packaged for Fedora in the next week or so.
Cheers
Rudi

Just a note for people using wkhtmtopdf. I had to do some patched for
10.2_rc to get some of the PDF stuff fixed. I intend to pass these
upstream for consideration but I thought I'd attach the patches here so
anyone who wants can use them a.s.a.p.
shortanchors.patch fixes a bug where using a deep path when creating a
PDF can make the PDF unreadable on some commercial software.
No tocintoc.patch actually does two things. Firstly it stops the TOC
appearing in the TOC. Secondly it changes the behaviour of page
numbering so that having multiple cover pages, as we do in 3.1, doesn't
make the starting page number increase. That is, without the patch the
more cover pages you add, the higher the page numbers are in the TOC.
For brand owners the behaviour of headers, footers, and cover pages has
changed. There is now a new directory in the publican install,
book_templates, which controls the content of TOC, headers, footers, and
the cover pages. If you copy this directory to the root directory of
your your brand, you can override the XSL and Template::Toolkit
templates, allowing total control of these components in your brand.
Cheers, Jeff.
