Uses Plugins Template Edits
Additional Files  
No support by the author.

Keywords: SHOWTHREAD, PDF, Abobe, export, download, thread

Description:
Allows you to download an entire thread in PDF format, viewable in any PDF viewer such as Adobe Acrobat or Foxit Reader.

Details:
Previously, there was a modification that performed this task however that modification is no longer supported and the backend used was seriously out-of-date and suffered from quite a few bugs. I've gone ahead and created this modification around an entirely different backend, one which works quickly and flawlessly.

Requirements:
  • PHP Version 4.0.4 or greater
  • html2ps (link)
  • ps2pdf (link)

Notes:
Please note, these prerequesits may already be installed on your system. If you're unsure, simply install the modification and upon usage it will inform you if something is missing.

If you happen to be fortunate enough to be using Debian, the above requirements can be installed with the following packages:
Code:
# apt-get install html2ps
Code:
# apt-get install gs-common

[hr]-[/hr]
Usage:
Under "Thread Tools", simply select "Download as PDF" which will be located under "Show Printable Version". Easy, eh?

[hr]-[/hr]
Installation:
  1. Download and unzip the pdfthread101.zip archive.
  2. Upload necessary files to their respective locations.
  3. Import the product-pdfthread.xml via the Product Manager.
  4. ???
  5. Profit!

Notes:
All template modifications are made automatically. They attach to pretty common text locations, so modified styles shouldn't* be a problem.

Comments:
As with all my hacks, this modification is provided free of charge. However, if you find this product useful and have money burning a hole in your pocket, feel free to make a small donation, I won't mind.. really.

Version History:
  • 1.0.1 - Initial release, here's to hoping...

Currently Known Bugs:
  • None

* Please note that this modification was developed on a forum with a userbase of 1 (myself). I've tested it for basic functionality but I cannot guarantee functionality or behavior on your forum. So, please -- make backups before installing this product!

Under requirements, there are respective links for each required utility -- simply click the link and you will be taken to the product's homepage where there you can find installation instructions. Be advised that you will most likely need root access to your server in order to install these.

Anyone know where I can find this:

ps2pdf (link)

I searched around the site in the link posted in the instructions, but I can't find this download. I got the other one.

Thanks ..

Regards,
Badger
