Using the wiki-to-pdf publishing pipeline

  • make wiki: downloads the materials from the Unfolded wiki page and generates Unfolded.html
  • make run: runs a local server on port 8000 to preview the PDF at http://localhost:8000/Unfolded.html

Tools

  • PDF rendering: Paged.js (https://pagedjs.org/)
  • hyphens: hyphenology, see templates/template.html and js/runHyphens.js
  • baseline grid: px calculation + manual shifts of images in css/print.css
  • footnotes: are structured by MediaWiki and are wrapped in HTML elements when the content is pulled using the MediaWiki API
