Printing

The Gorse Fox has always been amazed that there aren't more utilities or web-sites that provide facilities for printing blogs. That's not to say there aren't any. In fact GF quite liked Blog2Print, though he thought the pricing a bit steep.

He has a utility that he has written in Python which will work pretty well with Blogger - providing a chronological extract in html format. This he can then open in Open Office or MS Word and fiddle with the final layout before converting to PDF for printing. At some stage he must tidy this up so that he can make it available.

He has used this today to prepare a file for printing that contains the complete "Posh Bloke" blog (which seems to have stopped growing of late).
