Re: [Haskell-cafe] Converting wiki pages into pdf

I invested an enormous amount of time into this problem. Accordingly I got a very well working solution. http://de.wikibooks.org/wiki/Benutzer:Dirk_Huenniger/wb2pdf http://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/File:Haskell.pdf I am happy If you find it useful. Yours Dirk Hünniger
Thu, 08 Sep 2011 05:36:44 -0700 Hello all I am trying to write a Haskell program which download html pages from wikipedia including images and convert them into pdf . I wrote a small script
import Network.HTTP import Data.Maybe import Data.List
main = do x<- getLine htmlpage<- getResponseBody =<< simpleHTTP ( getRequest x ) -- open url --print.words $ htmlpage let ind_1 = fromJust . ( \n -> findIndex ( n `isPrefixOf`) . tails $ htmlpage ) $ "<!-- content -->" ind_2 = fromJust . ( \n -> findIndex ( n `isPrefixOf`) . tails $ htmlpage ) $ "<!-- /content -->" tmphtml = drop ind_1 $ take ind_2 htmlpage writeFile "down.html" tmphtml
and its working fine except some symbols are not rendering as it should be. Could some one please suggest me how to accomplish this task.
Thank you Mukesh Tiwari
