Dump site to PDF and HTML

I have a client who wishes to use Zen Cart but needs two specific functions.

Dump to PDF (i) : They would like the ability to dump the whole catalogue to a PDF file., One PDF page per product.

Dump to PDF (ii) : Have the ability to Dump to PDF the page they are currently looking at. I have found a utility to do this that I think I can mash a bit of code to get this to work (html2ps and html2pdf) I had to use v2.14 to get working.

Dump to HTML : Same client wishes to dump the catalogue to CDROM as a bunch of HTML files periodically for mail outs.

I have searched high and low for these. The closest I have come is an archived addon for v1.2.6 which refuses to work with 1.3.6/7.

Anybody have some bright ideas on whether I can deliver these functions to my client.

Many thanks for you time,

Justin

Re: Dump site to PDF and HTML

Well after some digging and a vague memory of an excellent scraper I have managed to locate this utility I used a couple of years ago.

HTTrack- This comes in both Linux and Win32 flavours. Easy to use and handles the dynamic nature of ZenCart with ease. And it obeys robots.txt by default.

So tick off the Dump to HTML. Now for the Dump to PDF solution
