NAME

       xhtml2pdf - PDF generator using HTML and CSS

SYNOPSIS

       xhtml2pdf [-b base path] [--base=base path] [-c CSS file] [--css=CSS file] [--css-dump] [-d] [--debug] [--encoding=character encoding] [-h]
		 [--help] [-q] [--quiet] [--version] [-w] [--warn] [-x] [--xml] [--xhtml] [--html] [SRC] [DEST]

DESCRIPTION

       This manual page documents briefly the xhtml2pdf command.

       xhtml2pdf is an HTML-to-PDF converter using the ReportLab Toolkit, HTML5lib and pyPdf.

       It supports HTML 5 and CSS 2.1 (and some of CSS 3). It is completely written in pure Python so it is platform independent. The main benefit
       of this tool that a user with Web skills like HTML and CSS is able to generate PDF templates very quickly without learning new
       technologies. Easy integration into Python frameworks like CherryPy, KID Templating, TurboGears, Django, Zope, Plone, Google AppEngine
       (GAE) etc.

       DEST
	   Name of the generated PDF file or - if you like to send the result to stdout. Take care that the destination file is not already opened
