Regarding WP2PDF and UTF-8 support, please read this:

Pierre, regarding your “strange characters”, please read this: https://sourceforge.net/forum/forum.php?forum_id=456543

This bug has been fixed in the new version, 0.4.2.

WP2PDF currently uses iconv() to convert UTF-8 to ISO-8859-1. If iconv is not installed, it will just skip conversion and the text looks strange. There is currently no simple solution for this (except using ISO-8859-1 for the blog). I’m working on this.

@peter92: I forgot your image problem ?? Are you using a relative path in <img src=”…? In this case it will probably fail. I’m going to fix that.

I updated WP2PDF and will release the new version later this day. The eMail-adress “bug” is fixed there. Regarding the <span>-tag: I’m working on CSS-support, so it will be supported sooner or later. But it still needs some tuning. If the tags added by other plugins look like html-tags (<blah></blah>), they will be ignored. If they however use square brackets, they will be included in the text. I’m going to add an option for this in the next version. Tag-“processing” is done in the file “wp2pdf_includes.php” (functions: opentag and closetag).

@peter92: which characters look wrong? This probably has to do with the html entities translation. Which document encoding are you using?

Update: I had to remove the plugin because it obviously causes problems with the rss-feed. I don’t know why and I will look into that tomorrow. Sorry for the inconvenience.

All right, I’ll be working on that in my holidays ??

But I don’t want to work on sunday ??

I’m soooo stupid.
I found out what’s wrong. I didn’t know that the plugin will only “clean” new titles. I’ve written a new entry with an umlaut and it works well. So sorry for my “complaint” ??

That’s what I wanted to say with “not supposed to be edited” ??
Anyway, the WP<->OO conversion is not a bad idea. I just looked at the examples and it shouldn’t be a problem to accomplish that.

Well PDFs are not supposed to be edited. I tought you just need a way to store your blog offline, not edit them afterwards ??

Just an idea for backup/offline usage:
You could use WP2PDF.

Hmm. That’s strange.
I’m using WP 1.2 Final, the plugin is activated and no other plugin is used. So it should work. But it doesn’t ??

Great idea, but it doesn’t seem to work work with Umlauts: ?¤ ?? ?? will simply be deleted and not shown as a o u, as I hoped ??
