Would it be possible in the next version of the specification to: 1) Use a PDF conversion tool which behaves more like the html2ps tool used for the HTML4.x and CSS2 specifications; 2) use style sheets to inhibit the rules and links at the start and end of each web "page"; 3) use proper title elements (i.e. ones with some hope of global uniqueness - HTML titles should make sense out of context - "Text" does not). Particular issues to do with the PDF conversion are: - the rather unprofessional "local disk" as the top level in the outline tree; - the use of titles (which probably relates to item (3) above) rather than headings to construct the outline tree - whilst this may be the best compromise for commercial quality "HTML", W3C documents are normally properly structured, with Hn elements used appropriately and properly nested; - I very much liked the page number cross-references generated by html2ps in the hardcopy version. I haven't checked whether (2) is possible, in general, or with html2ps.Received on Thursday, 13 April 2000 08:15:10 GMT
