HTMLDOC converts HTML source files into indexed HTML. Meta informations and checksums for htmldoc-1.9.3-windows.msi (10 Apr 14:18, 4573184 Bytes).
HTMLDOC is a program that reads HTML and Markdown source files or web pages andgenerates corresponding EPUB, HTML, PostScript, or PDF files with an optionaltable of contents.
HTMLDOC was developed in the 1990’s as a documentation generator for my previouscompany, and has since seen a lot of usage as a report generator embedded in webservers. However, it does not support many things in “the modern web”, such as:
- Cascading Style Sheets (CSS): While I have experimented with adding CSSsupport to HTMLDOC, proper CSS support is non-trivial especially for pagedoutput (which is not well supported by CSS)
- Encryption: HTMLDOC currently supports the older (and very insecure) PDF 1.4(128-bit RC4) encryption. I have looked at supporting AES (256-bit)encryption, however it is not widely supported and there are incompatiblechanges in PDF 2.0, so it is unlikely to be added to HTMLDOC.
- Forms: HTML forms and PDF forms are very different things. While I have hadmany requests to add support for PDF forms over the years, I have not found asatisfactory way to do so.
- Tables: HTMLDOC supports HTML 3.2 tables with basic support for TBODY andTHEAD.
- Unicode: While HTMLDOC does support UTF-8 for “Western” languages, there isabsolutely no support for languages that require dynamic rewriting orright-to-left text formatting. Basically this means you can’t use HTMLDOCto format Arabic, Chinese, Hebrew, Japanese, or other languages that are notbased on latin-based alphabets that read left-to-right.
- Emoji: The fonts bundled with HTMLDOC do not include Unicode Emoji characters.
My focus is on addressing security, build, and formatting issues and not onextending HTMLDOC to support CSS or full Unicode.
