(This is a corrected posting. The original URL was wrong, sorry.)
A new version of the freeware application !meDDLe is now on my
web-site at:
www.rayfavre.me.uk/dwapps.html
There are no big changes:
- better error trapping has been added;
- the option to produce an index page has been extended to include
single-page output documents;
- picture and index referencing has been improved to allow large
numbers of pictures and/or html markers to be handled correctly;
- some bugs have been fixed.
-------------------
!meDDLe is an application to convert OvationPro DDL documents into
HTML - including 'embedded' pictures.
On dragging in a DDL document, !meDDLe extracts its 'Styles' and
presents a list of them so that the user can - if he/she wishes -
'map' any Style to any one or more of the common HTML text-altering
codes e.g. Style "Heading" might be mapped to HTML code "h3".
There are other options:
- to get rid of headers/footers;
- to decide how the output is to be split into separate HTML 'pages';
- to choose a Style to be used for starting a new HTML 'page' or to
trigger the placing of an HTML marker
- to add a Contents page with live links to each 'page' and marker;
- to include/exclude the extraction and referencing of pictures;
- etc.
The output comprises a series of HTML 'pages' plus (if chosen) a
picture folder. All pictures are converted to PNG format and those
pictures which are 'embedded' will be referenced to appear in the
right place on the appropriate 'page'. (Non-embedded pictures will
still be extracted and it is then a moment's work to add a reference
to the output wherever the user wishes.)
Each 'page' contains a link to the next and previous 'page' (and back
to the Contents, if chosen).
The Contents page will contain (at least) links to each output 'page'
and can, if chosen, also contain correctly indented sub-links to
user-chosen marker positions e.g. markers at each occurrence of the
sub-head Style.
As an example the application includes a DDL document of its own
Manual with a step-by-step guide on how to produce an HTML version of
the Manual in various forms.
