Control over margins in web-build versions of worksheets #2205
Comments
It is on my to-do list to look into this. The current goal of worksheets is to fit as much as possible on a page. Can you describe some use cases for adjusting the margins? |
So I'm currently translating an existing LaTeX workbook into PreTeXt. (See also the web build on github pages.) We plan to use the print version to send to a print-on-demand shop to make a spiral-bound physical workbook for students to buy. However, it'd also be neat for students to be able to print out individual sections as needed, perhaps if they want a fresh copy of a particular section for revisions, and it'd be nice to have the formatting the same between the print version and the version generated by the print button on web. |
Why is it the html version, and not the print-on-demand PDF, which the student would use to print one section? |
Because of the way
pretext-latex.xsl
builds a\newgeometry{}
command from a<worksheet>
, you can control margins in the print build. However, the web build doesn't know anything about margin attributes of a worksheet.I feel like it should be possible to pass margin attributes to the css similarly, but I don't know enough about xslt / css / etc. to figure this out immediately.)
