Html2pdf
HTML_ToPDF takes the hassle out of generating a PDF file from a Web page. It will convert any HTML document into a format that will look the same on any platform and printer. It includes support for converting images, using the stylesheets to customize the look of the PDF file, and error handling.
Html2xhtml
Html to Xhtml Convertor converts HTML pages into XHTML pages. It can process batches of files, convert line breaks, and deal with attribute minimization, quoting of attribute values, and more.
Hypermail
Hypermail 2 is a much enhanced version of the popular tool that converts mails into correctly formatted HTML pages. Version 2 has many new features including MIME support. Perfect for archiving mailing lists and similar.
JDynamiTe
JDynamiTe is a tool which allows you to dynamically create documents in any format from "template" documents. Some typical usage domains of JDynamiTe are:
  • dynamic Web pages creation,
  • text document generation,
  • source code generation...
In fact, it can be useful in any case where pre-defined documents (templates) have to be dynamically populated with data. The main benefit of JDynamiTe is to allow a true separation between data (content), presentation (container) and content generation code (written in Java). JDynamiTe does not include a specific template language, and it is not a complete framework. It is a simple "brick" in your software architecture, a "glue" between your data model and your presentation model.
LibreOffice
LibreOffice is a comprehensive office suite. It contains a number of components: Writer, a word processor; Calc, a spreadsheet application; Impress, a presentation engine; Draw, a drawing and flowcharting application; Base, a database and database frontend; Math for editing mathematics. There are also a good and growing number of free software extensions and templates available. LibreOffice is a fork of OpenOffice.org, which is now called Apache OpenOffice. Because Apache OpenOffice hosts and recommends using proprietary extensions, we do not recommend using it.
Mandoc
Mandoc is a suite of tools compiling mdoc, the roff macro language of choice for BSD manual pages, and man, the predominant historical language for UNIX manuals. It is small, ISO C, ISC-licensed, and quite fast. The main component of the toolset is the mandoc utility program, based on the libmandoc validating compiler, to format output for UTF-8 and ASCII UNIX terminals, HTML 5, PostScript, and PDF.
Markdown
'Markdown' is a text-to-HTML conversion tool that lets you write using an easy-to-read, easy-to-write plain text format, then convert it to structurally valid XHTML (or HTML). Thus, 'markdown' is both a plain text formatting syntax and a software tool, that converts the plain text formatting to HTML. The overriding design goal for Markdown's formatting syntax is to make it as readable as possible. Ideally, a Markdown-formatted document should be publishable as-is, as plain text, without looking like it has been marked up with tags or formatting instructions. The single biggest source of inspiration for Markdown's syntax is the format of plain text email.
Markdown-mode
Markdown Mode is a major mode for GNU Emacs for editing Markdown-formatted text files. It provides syntax highlighting and editing commands.
Mll2html
Reformats an ASCII file, containing a description of mailing lists, into a more convenient HTML file. For each ftp, http and news address, a hyperlink is generated pointing to that address. A hyperlink is also generated for each email address. The 'mll2html' program parses a template file, writing it to the output file, to detect predefined tags, which are replaced by the corresponding part of the mailing lists. A template file (the file that is copied to the output file) can contain one or more of these tags, and a tag can be used more than once. mll2html's purpose for GNU was to maintain the web pages for the GNU web site.
NextTypes
NextTypes is a standards based information storage, processing and transmission system that integrates the characteristics of other systems such as databases, programming languages, communication protocols, file systems, document managers, operating systems, frameworks, file formats and hardware in a single tightly integrated system using a common data types system. NextTypes is a relational/network/objects/files hybrid database system with high level SQL interface, extensive primitive types list, JSON/JSON-LD/XML/Smile/WebDAV/CalDAV/iCalendar/RSS data access, REST interface, customizable MVC architecture, optimistic concurrency control, HTML5/CSS3/SVG/Javascript responsive graphical interface, multilanguage, UTF-8 encoding, syntax highlighting or WYSIWYG editors, robots.txt and sitemap management, text extraction/fulltext search, document management, virus scanning, DoS/SQL injection/CSRF/XSS protection, passwords/X.509 certificates authentication, logging and backup system.
Otl
otl is intended to convert a text file to a HTML or XHTML file. It is different than many other text-to-HTML programs in that the input format (by default a simple highly readable plain text format) can be customized by the user, and the output format (by default XHTML) can be user-defined. It can process complex structures such as ordered and unordered lists (nested or not), and add custom "headers" and "footers" to documents. The conversion utilizes Perl regex, adding quite a bit of flexibility and power to the conversion process. Since both the syntax of the source file and of the output can be readily customized, otl in theory can be used for many types of conversions. The package also includes tag-remove, a script for stripping HTML/XHTML-ish tags from documents.
Outl
'outl' is a glorified search and replace engine. It can be used to generate markup such as HTML, XML, or whatever from a text file. Users specify which elements to look for using perl regex as well as how to deal with those elements when replacing them. 'oult'is designed to process outlines (e.g., lecture notes, etc.) and generate nice HTML, but it could be used in other contexts as well by defining a new set of rules for the substitution process. It can deal with relatively complex structures involving multiple lines, nested lists, etc. It doesn't deal with table construction, etc. but doesn't mind if the text file being processed already contains xml-like elements.
PHPMyEdit
PHPMyEdit generates PHP code for displaying/editing MySQL tables in HTML. It includes sorting, filtering, table lookups, and more. It can be used with any data that firs in a single MySQL table.
Pf2x
This is a candidate for deletion: 1. No files sources found. 'pf2x' is a PHP script that will take the output of your pflog and convert it into various different output formats. These output formats include plain text, XML, HTML, PDF, and MySQL INSERT statements for import into a MySQL database.
Ppm2html
'ppm2html' converts an RGB PPM image to an HTML page. The page will display an approximated version of the image only using ASCII characters and color definitions. The tool makes full use of 24 bit color in HTML. If a 'source string' is being defined this string will repeatedly be used as the character source for rendering the ASCII output. If omitted, random characters between 'a' and 'z' will be used. The 'red', 'green', and 'blue' values define the background color of the HTML page. If no command line arguments are given, the page is rendered black. User will get the best results by converting segmented objects (the background of the image is replaced by a single color) and keeping the level of detail low. A small blur on the image results in a nicer visual appearance, especially when displaying text. Note that output varies among different browsers; in particular, horizontal scaling might differ a lot. Using unique renderings for each browser yields the best results.
RTF to HTML
The RTF to HTML convertor converts RTF files to HTML files (in ISO-8859-2 encoding). It currently supports bullets, , bold, italic, and underined text, tables, left, center, and right alignments, links, and unicode. Subscripts are transformed into a number; superscripts are transformed into "[number]". Footnotes are included in the text.
Rest2Web
A tool for autobuilding html pages for websites or project documentation. Content can be stored as ReStructuredText or HTML and has a flexible templating system. Its main features include :
  • Integrated with docutils (store your pages in ReST or HTML)
  • Automatically builds index pages and navigation links (sidebars and breadcrumbs)
  • Embedded code in templates for unlimited expressiveness
  • Flexible macro system.
  • Uses relative links, so sites can be viewed from the filesystem
  • Unicode internally - so you don't have to be
  • Includes features for multiple translations of sites
  • Built-in gallery creator plugin.
  • The basic system is very easy to use
  • Lots of powerful (optional) features
Rtf-converter
rtf-converter is a command line RTF to HTML converter application written in C++. It removes specific font and font-size references leaving only the basic paragraph styles and bold, italic etc.
SXML
SXML defines and implements a markup language. When the program is given a document containing user defined tags and their definition, it produces a new document, which is generated by replacing the tags with their definition (you can asssociate functions to tags). SXML supports the XML 1.0 syntax excluded entity support and documents' DTDs. With SXML you can use XML to define sites that are accesssible by all browsers: since the output will be standard HTML, it's very good for maintaining Web sites. You can also use SXML as a module in a generation system: the system generates the SXML documents that will be transformed in the target language. You can also write a document in your markup language and compile it to different output languages. The program's ability to execute guile code, Perl functions, and shell commands in tags' definition lets you automate several tasks. This is a decomissioned GNU project.
Source2html
source2html is a Ruby program that scans of source files and produces HTML files with properly-formatted source with hyperlinks between the files. An index file for all the included source code is also generated. The user has some small control over the format of the HTML files.
T2t
t2t can convert any delimited text file to an HTML table. It supports all attributes for the various table-related tags. It can read its input either from stdin, a file, or a whole directory. when t2t is passed in a directory, it will process all the files (except those with either .html or .htm extension), and all the files in all the sub-directories. It works on any system with Perl.
Textpattern
Textpattern is a flexible, elegant and easy-to-use web content management system capable of powering a wide range of websites from a personal blog to full-scale business web sites with a limitless amount of authors, content assets or web pages.
Untitled
It takes pandoc-flavoured markdown files in website directories, and generates websites in html, using Pandoc. With the use of a Pandoc template, it's quite flexible. It is a *multi-site* static site generator, capable of handling multiple websites in one instance. Perfect for setups with virtual hosts (in nginx, apache etc). It can also generate news sections (with rss feed) and automatically generate sitemaps.
Vilistextum
Vilistextum is a small, fast HTML to text converter. It is quite fault-tolerant and deals well with badly-formed or otherwise quirky HTML. It has full support for different character sets (e.g. Unicode). It can optimize for ebook reading, collapse multiple blank lines, and create footnotes out of links. A GUI frontend using 'kaptain' is included.
Vim2html
vim2html exports Vim-editables file into well-formed HTML, simulating a Vim session. It fully supports Vim colorization (customizable) and authentic Vim syntax highlighting.It fully supports valid CSS and XHTML-1.0/Transitional or Strict with HTMLtidy.
Wkhtmltopdf
wkhtmltodpf is a utility for converting local or remote web pages to image or PDF format. This can be done without access to a desktop environment, for example from the command line on a remote server. A C library implementation (libwkthmltox) is also available.
Xidel
Xidel is a command line tool to query data from HTML/XML web pages, JSON-APIs and local files. It implements interpreters for XPath 2, XPath 3, XQuery 1, XQuery 3, JSONiq, CSS selectors and custom pattern matching. XPath and CSS selectors are the most efficient way to select certain elements from XML/HTML documents. JSONiq (with custom extensions) is an easy way to select data from JSON. XQuery is a Turing-complete superset of XPath and allows arbitrary data transformations and the creation of new documents. Pattern matching is for XML/HTML documents what regular expressions are for plaintext, i.e. pattern matching behaves like a regular expression over the space of tags, instead over the space of characters. Xidel implements a kind of internal pipes to pipe HTTP requests from one query to the next, so there is no need to distinguish selecting links and downloading the data referenced by them. Therefore arbitrary complex queries going over arbitrary many pages can be executed with a single call of Xidel.
YETI (Yowsie's Easy Translation Interface)
The Yeti package allows web developers to offer content in any language without coding and maintaining multiple copies of pages. You will need help from people who can translate, like your own overseas agents, but you need no linguistic skills at all and they need no understanding of HTML, php etc. You need to have your website on a server that runs php and can use utf-8 encoding.
Yodl
Yodl is a package that implements a pre-document language and tools to process it. The idea of Yodl is that you write up a document in a pre-language, then use the tools (e.g. yodl2html) to convert it to some final document language. Current converters are for HTML, man, LaTeX SGML and texinfo, a poor- man's text converter and an experimental xml converter. Main document types are "article", "report", "book", "manpage" and "letter". The Yodl document language was designed to be easy to use and extensible.
