[Tex/LaTex] How to print or convert HTML document into PDF using LaTeX

conversionhtml

I written one XSD schema, I documented that schema using xmlpad, It generates the HTML documentation automatically for that XSD schema. Now I want to generate a PDF document for that HTML document. I thought to convert the HTML document to LaTeX and I am using pdflatex to generate the PDF document. But I don't know how to convert a HTML document to LaTeX? Is there any open source tool? Can anyone suggest a tool or any other way? I need to convert a HTML document to PDF.

I don't know about LaTeX, but with ConTeXt MkIV, you can parse XML. For an example of parsing HTML, see the My Way by Thomas Schmitz

You can use package ifpdf and enclose pdf-specific stuff in \ifpdf ... \fi

\usepackage{ifpdf}

\ifpdf
%pdf specific stuff
\fi

Alternatively, you can make the pdf-file and convert to html using a tool like pdftohtml.

PGFplots has the \addplot graphics (or \addplot3 graphics) feature.

This would allow you to export only the projected graphics plus some meta data about your coordinate space. Then, you import the resulting graphics using \addplot graphics - and communicate the mentioned "meta data" such that pgfplots can properly overlay a suitable axis, including all TeX axis descriptions that the package supports. It would even allow you to change axis limits (somewhat restricted by your input graphics of course).

Here, SVG would be an intermediate step; you would need to convert it to (say) pdf first. But this would not hurt anymore since your graphics would only contain graphical elements, the text would be task of pgfplots and its overlay.

You can find detailed instructions in the pgfplots manual pgfplots manual, section "Using External Graphics as Plot Sources".

In case this is what you want and you run into unparticipated problems, you can ask a more detailed question here.
