Export PDF, Doc, Docx Plugin

[Java Developer]

Hi,

Is there an export PDF, Doc, Docx Plugin for the tiddly wiki ?

Thanks

Export what and how? More details please.

• Are you referring to embed or binary versions in a tiddler?
• Or do you mean to export standard tiddlywiki content to these file standards?

For PDF's I use open in window and print to a pdf printer.

Other apps like word often accept more than one format, have a loiok at what you can open or past into word and then see if you can copy past, export and import in the desired format from tiddlywiki. For example I have a browser utility that lets me copy content on the screen as html and I have in the past pasted this into work and other apps, bringing over formating, sometimes I copy as plain text etc...

There is csv export which you can import/export from/to excel.

Regards

Tony

is there a way to imoport csv? I was of the impression, that you could export csv, but not import csv.

If i wnat to export to pdf, I usually export to html and open that file in a word processor if I want to add page numbers or TOC, or I just open the html in a browser and press print to html.

There is a printing plugin that lets you finetune some layout in a seperate window before printing (or printing ot pdf).

There is NO TW plugins for converting those formats on ONE button press AFAIK.

There ARE workarounds.

Regarding PDF EXPORT. Doddle. Print to PDF.

Ciao Java

If you are seriously intent in doing DOC & DOCX import within TW then you can (rather than use one of the many online tools).

But you need extra steps ...

The way to do it is by installing BJ's visual editor (CK Editor) that has tools for that. 

(Its not so easy to configure, but get there and its ace!)

They convert DOC & DOCX to HTML that will work in TW fine. 

Its not WikiText but does not conflict with it.

Regarding DOC & DOCX export. Both are just wrapper formats. Not supported. No need.

Exported tiddlers to HTML should import pretty well into Word. No further conversion needed.

So: tell me, did this work for you?

Best wishes

Hello,

You won't have much success with this request I'm afraid. As far as I know there are bounties on xsl converters for docx / HTML / markdown / odt etc. And nobody hunting...

So I guess that free (hard) work on a docx to tw converter will not have much volunteers.

Maybe you could look to a routine (or even a macro) inside your word processor to make some of the job :

* detect title 2 -> add ##
* detect bold -> add '' ''
* ...

Cheers

or you could save the docx as html and improt it the html to TW. This will render fine, but if you want  it in wiki text, you can use the

HTMLConvert plugin to convert the html to wikitext, but there will be some manual cleanup

[TonyM]

If you select all in a word doc and copy and past it into a regular tiddler you will get unformatted text. If you copy and past into ckediter It should retain the formatting but in html.

There are dozens of ways to transfer content via intermediate formats. Even online tools to open most formats and convert these to others one of which should be suitable for tiddlywiki.

Making a docx converter is bespoke and of limited value and would need to be maintained. Have a look at words save as or export facilities then drop these files or copy paste the content into tiddlywiki and see what's the best for you. Still not happy try other tools that convert word to other formats, then to tiddlywiki.

But why do you want this? Simply to display the document? Re edit it, turn it into tiddlers etc... Because it makes a big difference.

There are other tricks but you must explain what you want to achieve rather than asking for a converter which is a solution that's not available and if it were it may not do what you think.
