Don't you know the problem?
You need an easy way to create a chain of html pages of the presentation
you did yesterday. M$-Powerpoint's export feature is ugly and depends too
much on frames und javascript so that it is unusable. And what about
LaTeX presentations?
So we need a program that converts a presentation - available as a
postscript or .pdf-File - into a chain of web pages with an image of each
page on it. In addition there should be a contents page with thumbnails
of each page. And this is really what sconv does. It is a bash script
that uses common programs to build a chain of web pages from a .ps or
.pdf file...
I've developed sconv on a GNU/Linux system.
As a simple bash script sconv depends on the availability of the
following programs:
- ghostscript (with -sDEVICE=ppm)
- acroread (or alternatively pdf2ps if acroread is not
available)
- pnmflip, pnmscale, pnmtopng from the netpbm package
- uudecode from the sharutils package to unpack the embedded
"valid-html", "ps" and "pdf" buttons
