Re: [lojban] CLLv1.1 again: html -> pdf with page numbers?



Obviously this doesn't matter with printouts, but are the references linked? That is, in the generated pdf, if you click on the "Section 1.17" bit, will it take you to that section?

The only thing I can think of that might fix it is to first determine what page each of these sections is on, and do a find/replace on them in the references. The problem with that is, the initial work of creating the section x = pg(s) y database is quite likely a lot of effort, even if the actual find/replace can be fully automated, and the database would need to be recreated anytime there's a change to the page structure (I mostly refer to addition or deletion of content, but even font changes apply).

If there were a way to automatically determine which page(s) a certain section will be on in the generated document, it would be possible to automate the whole thing, including the f/r database creation, but I have no idea how to go about doing that.

So I would dearly love to be able to generate a PDF version of
CLLv1.1 from the HMTL version.  The problem I'm finding with all of
the converters I've tried is that they don't fix internal cross
references from names into page numbers, so that the index (for
example) is full of things like:

klama: Section 1.17, Section 2.4

rather than:

klama: 4, 8

Either an html->pdf converter that handles this, or something that
converts the cross references in the resulting pdf, would be
fantastic.
