Well adding media CSS for print shouldn't be too difficult, or am I missing something? Or is automating the browser your issue? Cheers Rolf _{(addicted to the Perl Programming Language and ☆☆☆☆ :) Je suis Charlie!}	[reply]

Well, I'd rather not get my hands dirty with having to fool with the css (unless it would be a one-time affair that would be resusable with a given slide theme)--I'd much rather have an "automatic" solution.	[reply]

I'm not using S5 but there is already a print css `<link rel="stylesheet" href="v11b1/print.css" type="text/css" media="print" id="slidePrint" />` Cheers Rolf _{(addicted to the Perl Programming Language and ☆☆☆☆ :) Je suis Charlie!}	[reply] [d/l]

The "print" CSS is not what I'd like in the PDF. I'd like a "presentation" PDF, not a "print" PDF.	[reply]

Not sure what you mean, aren't you free to adjust the css to your needs? Of course dynamic effects like revealing bullet points step by step are lost. But your intention was to present in HTML and to upload to slideshare as PDF, right? Cheers Rolf _{(addicted to the Perl Programming Language and ☆☆☆☆ :) Je suis Charlie!}	[reply]

Thanks, Corion, that spod5 => sp5 looks pretty slick! So what work flow do you use to create pdf? Update: Corrected spod5 link reference (there are two spod5 creations on CPAN!).	[reply]

Currently, I don't produce PDF. So far, I've found HTML to be good enough for most purposes. My plan is to either automate Firefox or PhantomJS and take a screenshot of every slide and stitch them together, or to finally understand the Powerpoint PPTX format and produce Powerpoint slides directly.
