Re: [Patch 0/5] Create single PDF for all HTML files

Jeff King [off-list ref] writes:

Another way of doing this would be to format the individual troff
manpages into dvi or postscript, convert that into pdf, and then
concatenate that. Something like:

  for i in *.[157]; do
    man -Tdvi -l "$i" >"$i.dvi"
    dvipdfm "$i"
  done
  pdftk *.[157].pdf cat output full.pdf

works for me, though obviously that does not handle some of the non-man
items you included. No idea on how the output compares to yours, but
it's something you may want to look at.

Yes, that would be far more straight-forward and less error prone
way to do this.
