Hi all.
I need to convert many type of files (.gif, .jpeg, html pages...) in 
.pdf format.

And i need to do this in a shell-way.
The goal is to have a script (partially done, except for the 
conversion!) that download every day some front-page daily paper and 
convert all in pdf with a specific name (like MMDD_dailypapername.PDF).

Which is the better tool to do this conversion?
Thanks!

Of Course!


That has gotta be the most unusual quoting style I've ever seen.

and, how i can see, i must define user to be sure of the destination folder (as specified in cups-pdf.conf file);i would not infact change the default directory and not allow anonymous access.But it's not a problem, i'll copy the files in another folder with a stupid script.
The problem (for me, 'cause sure there's a little, simple solution) now is:- i've tried to print a .jpg file, and cups-pdf (that i use without problem with firefow, i.e.) print it in 4 pages.So i have an image 4-broken :-(
Any help?Thanks!!On Tue, 2006-04-11 at 11:22 +0200, Mirco Piccin wrote:
