Hi,
I absolutely love the editor. You've done a great job so far!
I might have totally missed a pre-existing feature but I have been reading through the forums and wiki for the past 2 hours now and have found no mention of support for PDFs.
Are there any plans to support PDF output as an alternative to XHTML? at the moment I am relying on a primative conversion tool which is hit and miss with results.
Thanks,
James

RE: PDF Support
I think this is well out of scope for any XHTML editor.
fckEditor's target is to produce valid XHTML code and it does this well. What you do with it on the server side is up to you.
Under ASP and ASP.Net we have successfully used the ABCPDF products to convert XHTML to PDF format. There are many other specialty components and I think such functionality is best left to them.

RE: PDF Support
Here are a couple of "free" html to pdf generators:
This one I've never tried:
http://www.tufat.com/script.php?id_num=19
And with some pre-processing this one works good:
http://html2fpdf.sourceforge.net
The last one is under GNU, dunno what the first one is, but it said 100% free for commercial or private use.
HTH
