Description: Introduction
        ============
        
        collective.sendaspdf is an open source product for Plone that
        allows downloading the page seen by the user as a PDF file. It also
        provide a form to send the page by e-mail (a screenshot of the current
        page in a PDF format being joined to the e-mail).
        
        It relies on two products to generate the PDF files:
        - xhtml2pdf: http://www.xhtml2pdf.com/
        - wkhtmltopdf: http://code.google.com/p/wkhtmltopdf/
        
        The site manager can easily chose which solution he prefers for
        the generation.
        
        Installing
        ==========
        
        To install the package, you can simply add 'collective.sendaspdf'
        to the eggs list in your buildout.
        Then install it using Zope's quick installer or Plone's add-on
        products manager.
        
        To install xhtml2pdf, add the following to your buildout eggs
        directory:
        pisa
        pyPdf
        html5lib
        reportlab
        
        collective.sendaspdf has been tested with development versions of
        pisa and html5lib. With the last releases (when writing this README
        - html5lib 0.9 and pisa 3.0.33) some pages could not be rendered.
        
        To install wkhtmltopdf, go to the projects page and download an
        executable version for your OS. Install it so the command
        'wkhtmltopdf' is in the PATH.
        You can also update your buildout to automatically download
        wkhtmltopdf and have if use by your instance using the following
        recipes:
        
        [buildout]
        parts =
        ...
        wkhtmltopdf
        wkhtmltopdf_executable
        
        [instance]
        ...
        environment-vars =
        ...
        WKHTMLTOPDF_PATH ${wkhtmltopdf:location}/wkhtmltopdf
        
        [wkhtmltopdf]
        recipe = hexagonit.recipe.download
        url = http://wkhtmltopdf.googlecode.com/files/wkhtmltopdf-0.9.9-static-amd64.tar.bz2
        
        [wkhtmltopdf_executable]
        recipe = collective.recipe.cmd
        on_install = true
        on_update = true
        cmds =
        cd ${buildout:directory}/parts/wkhtmltopdf
        mv wkhtmltopdf-amd64 wkhtmltopdf
        chmod +x wkhtmltopdf
        
        You might have some changes to do depending on the architecture you
        are using (this example is for the amd64 architecture)
        
        Configuring
        ===========
        
        Go to the Plone control panel. You will find a 'Send as PDF' link that
        sends you to the products configuration page.
        
        This page proposes a few settings:
        - the tool used to render the PDF files.
        - the directory where the PDF files are stored.
        - the sentence used as salt when hashing the user's emails
        (this hash is used to know which files a user can access)
        - the name used in the mail for the PDF file.
        - a default title/body for the mails.
        
        For wkhtmltopdf user, two extra options are available:
        - always use the print CSS to render the PDF.
        - use the print CSS for a given set of objects.
        
        xhtml2pdf always use the print CSS.
