The best way would be to have a native HTML printer driver for text87. With several translations for several Fonts. But as far as I know, there is no way to make this by ourselfes.

If someone has contact or the address of Ewald Ikemann, he/she should contact him, as he has written the typeset93 printer driver for text87, so he should know how to do it.

I think the PDF import into Libre/Open Office imported each page as a bitmap, not as the original text. I tried it once, and that was enough!

There was certainly one that imported the text. I used it to edit contracts before!

I sent you some HTML files today, hopefully, all nicely tidied up and properly formatted etc. It's been a while since I had a decent lunchtime, but today was the day!

Maybe I missed that one, on the grounds of the "import as an image" one being so naff!
