Posted by dathompson on March 26, 2012 — 1 comment
I just launched version 0.1.0 of bookshop. Bookshop is a book publishing framework for publishers, editors, and coders in today's publishing industry. bookshop provides a framework for developing books using well-known web languages like HTML/CSS.

“” The big changes in this version:
Dropped wkhtmltopdf in favor of PrinceXML for HTML to PDF conversion. PrinceXML is not open source and has a steep sticker price, but it is easy enough to use services like DocRaptor (which uses PrinceXML) to keep costs down. There were just too many barriers with wkhtmltopdf for now. We are considering adding a config option to allow for wkhtmltopdf in the future.
Restructured book directory structure to include folders for front/body/backmatter. This is more of an aesthetic choice for developers.

Consult the Changelog for more details.PeterCooper - March 27, 2012 00:47
