2019-08-10 Thread TonyM
Folks,

I am just bumping this thread. I will be working tomorrow on this, in 14+ 
Hours. 

*I have one tiddlywiki specific question arising.*
We can use style="width: 100%;" to display content across the full width of 
a tiddler. But as you know tiddlers can be an indefinite length. I imagine 
if we wanted to limit this length by using scrollable sections we may want  
to set a vertical size of some sort. Of course 100% is not relevant but has 
anyone given some thought to what would be an appropriate way to determine 
a suitable height of a tiddler in which the content was scrollable?.

*My research so far on print*
A lot of people suggest tables are not appropriate in page handling but all 
my data is already in tables. CSS and or w3.css seems to have all I need to 
do this but I need to have a broad understanding before I can use it to 
retrofit lengthless tiddlywiki tables. Although I do prefer to construct my 
tables with html. It also looks like its easy to generate a footer at the 
bottom of the page and decide which content can or can not break across 
pages.

The below basic example works on tiddlywiki.com

I want to have a number of tables, print on a number of pages and with 
reoccuring heading for each page the same table appears on.

So It seems I need the following

   - The various sections that define each page, perhaps with a first and 
   subsequent pages, and possibly odd and even pages (Left and Right)
   - Then a way to define tables within the page that overflow to the next 
   page with internal heading and footers.

I am trying to find a basic code snipit I can use to do this but only find 
part of it in any given place. *So If anyone has a good reference please 
share.*

Example

@page {
size: A4 landscape;
}
table { page-break-inside:auto }
div   { page-break-inside:avoid; } /* This is the key */
thead { display:table-header-group }
tfoot { display:table-footer-group }






heading




<$transclude tiddler="A Gentle Guide to TiddlyWiki" 
mode="block"/>

Eveyone

This sounds great because I think tiddlywiki would be ideal for both use as a 
smart document but also a document generator from web sites to pages and to 
print. Making it seemless would be nice.

I have a real world case I am working on so I can establish the key 
requirements. I think the most important is to handle the page layouts and the 
transition to print. The same is true for in browser lists and tiddlywiki is 
good at lists. We need to take control of the bottom of our lists which are 
prone to running long on the screen when keeping them in a tiddler, and one 
visible screen with scroll is often better.

An interesting observation I made recently for those who understand document 
management systems is tiddly wiki smart documents could operate as independant 
documents that have the document management system, standards, tools etc. . 
built in. Move the server management side into the documents themselves. It 
allows independence of your data while complying with standards to support 
collaboration and effective document management.

Printing as a core feature is very reasonable but not limited to only 
current tiddler.

IMO printing is closely related to exporting.
And for this I have the following proposal:

Hi Tony, 

I did think about your OP again and had a look about the "table based" 
implementation, that you linked to. ... It should be possible, to use it, 
together with BTCs solution. 

Instead of reusing the existing PageTemplate that overwrites the core, we 
create a new one that is table based and includes the header and footer CSS 
settings from your first link. We still can re-use the elements of the core 
PageTemplate, but it would be independent. 

have fun!

Hi, 

It seems, it is not a plugin atm. ... I did search for shadow-tiddlers 
"print", "images/pagebreak" and exported 6 tiddlers, including the core 
PageTemplate 
tiddler. ... Which imo is the reason, why it isn't a plugin atm. 

There is no license info at the TW.

So we need to ask BTC, if he can create a plugin or a bundle, which would 
be the best case. 

Be aware that this stuff will overwrite the core PageTemplate, which can 
have side effects! The TW version used for the page is 5.1.17 so you 
really need to double-check this tiddler.

Thanks all, I have just started looking into the details you have provided.

I will need to finish this by the end of the weekend, so I looks like a bit 
of  roller coaster for me. Its the cherry on the top of my first 
commissioned TiddlyWiki. A project I expect to deliver lots back to the 
community. Hopefully this will be one of them.

A Quick observation - we can display almost anything the way we want with 
tiddlywiki.  When it comes to printing we can easily embed content and page 
breaks programmatically. The single most difficult issue is the page 
footer, getting it to appear on the bottom. 

I will inform you of my progress.

 Printing into pdf from a browser is a straightforward job! There are many 
tools over there!
The problem is there is no good toold in TW lets you control what you want 
to print in what order
in which size with border, gutter, page numebr, 

PrintRiver is good starting point! It needs improvement and may address 
these issues.

TW stores tiddlers as JSON internally, right? So the plugin/macro would 
need to take existing tiddler JSON, convert it
to JSON used by library, and feed it to the library. Additional tasks would 
include converting images to the data format the
library wants. It kind of looks like the font set is very limited, so even 
after all that people might not be happy.

That sounds like a solid month of programming for someone.

The best way I've found for converting HTML in general to PDF is to copy 
the text, paste it into a blank Word document,
tweak for page breaks, and then export as PDF. Word has a great PDF 
exporter these days. This way you're 
leveraging 20 years of word processing technology.

I think  having a tool such as pdfmake to create pdfs, books and control
what it is needed in which order is so important!
