[Vtigercrm-developers] TeX printing

[Jorge Torres]

Enrico,

You are right, latex is about high quality prints, still you have to make a
document class for what you want and so on, and I dont know a way about
extracting db content from latex,  I thought that (extracting db contents)
could be easier achieved in a wiki syntax way, and precisely because of
wiki's  "easy-fast editing" it would be perfect for end user applications.
Also wiki to xml shouldn't be that complicated, having data in XML; a XSL
template can be very simple to describe (much more easier than latex class),
there are xsl "rendering" functions for php; the result of xsl(xml) could be
html, so you can either send it to the web browser or you can "html to pdf"
which is straight forward in php.

What do you think?
