I want to automatically create a .ps file from a html file using a script on this FC6 machine.
It seems to me that OpenOffice should fit this bill as it can load a html file and print to a PostScript file. However, doing this automatically from the commandline is becoming a challenge.
I thought I might be able to set up a printer using spadmin that would simply print to a file, then use a command like:
ooffice -pt textfileprinter document.html
Unfortunately, I have run into a roadblock here in that, on my installation of OpenOffice, when I run /usr/lib/openoffice.org2.0/program/spadmin and select "new printer" the options "Add a printer" (and "Import printers from a StarOffice intallation", though this one is not relevant) are greyed out and the only selections that I can make are "Connect a fax device" or "Connect a PDF converter".
So how can I add a printer to OpenOffice that will print to a Postscript file?
