[show] Permacomputing wiki to print

Here’s code to generate a PDF of the pages of the permacomputing.net wiki, starting from the index and traversing the entire wiki.

The pages are numbered according to the resulting order and listed in the table of contents.

Some printed copies are already out there in the world.

Let’s see if there are any forks or different takes too..

So nice 😌 At Varia last weekend we took a run at printing, cutting and gluing a copy of this to revel in the permacomputing wiki “printed experience”. Here are two photos of what came out (credit to crunk, click for full quality image).

How many pages is that?

I think it was in the region of 60 pages. We did change the zoom factor of the print PDF (for width of the final print, comfort of holding, etc.) and also tweaked the font size - I’m not sure what we did exactly. That’s just to say, it could be less / more depending on what you’d want to achieve. It’s pretty readable despite having no page numbers and the table of contents only being followable by following the numbered entries (without page numbers, it’s more “involved” to find a specific entry 🙃).

@ugrnm it was 125 printed pages (63 sheets of paper),
