Print to PDF

homerj · 01-09-2010, 04:40 PM

Hi:
When I try to print a page I get error message: We are unable to Print or Print Preview this page.

I would Like to be able to Print ePub to PDF. The Adobe Digital Editions will not print to PDF even on ePubs that are not encrypted. The results from other programs that I have tried are ugly. They print out an unformated document.

It would be great to be able to print to PDF and retain the format of the ePub.

thanks

I think the best solution for this is to use a converter which can convert ePub to PDF. Calibre should be able to do this: http://calibre-ebook.com/

is to copy and paste into Open Office Writer the part you need.

When I did it seemed to come out ok, including a picture, but the source document needed work, so it would be hard to say with certainty this is guaranteed.

I'd recommend using jellby's ePub to PDF conversion script, which uses Prince XML for the conversion. The result will be a typographically superior PDF which actually looks like a book.
