> I've actually written one, it's just not publicly released. You can check it out from the "experimental" branch of my <a href="https://github.com/rubykat/ikiplugins">ikiplugins githup repo</a>. It's called "html2pdf" and it depends on the static version of <a href="http://code.google.com/p/wkhtmltopdf/">wkhtmltopdf</a> rather than requiring a whole LaTeX setup. It's only been used on Ubuntu, so I can't say what problems there might be on other setups, but it works for me. It's not properly documented; I'd appreciate some help with that.

-> Thanks, I downloaded the git-repro and did `sudo cp html2pdf.pm /usr/share/perl5/IkiWiki/Plugin/` then I added html2pdf to the addplugins line in my setup-file (`mywiki.setup`) as well a new line `html2pdf_pages=>"/*",`. Then I did `sudo ikiwiki --setup mywiki.setup`. However there is no button or something like that which let's me create the pdf's

+>>> That is because they are created automatically as part of the page-build process. That's what the "html2pdf_pages" option is for: it defines which pages have PDFs generated from them. If a PDF is generated for page "foo", then the PDF itself will be in "foo/foo.pdf".

+>>> I also notice you didn't mention installing wkhtmltopdf - it won't create PDFs without that!
