I would like to convert this book Mastering the Lightning Network, which is freely available through GitHub to a pdf for personal use.
Unfortunately, I have only figured out how to "translate" single files using asciidoc or asciidoctor-pdf. The options for folders don't seem to work with the configuration of the repository.
There has to be an easy way to translate everything, including all files and pictures. Would be very thankful if somebody could help me out.
As far as I know it is not possible to convert a folder containing AsciiDoc files to a pdf, a simple script could do it but the problem would be in what order do you want your files to be converted?
The simplest solution for you is to create your own content.adoc file and use the include macro to select what files you want to convert and in what order, it could look something like this:
= Mastering the Lightning Network
include::01_introduction.asciidoc[]
include::02_getting_started.asciidoc[]
include::03_how_ln_works.asciidoc[]
include::04_node_client.asciidoc[]
include::05_node_operations.asciidoc[]
include::06_lightning_architecture.asciidoc[]
include::07_payment_channels.asciidoc[]
include::08_routing_htlcs.asciidoc[]
include::09_channel_operation.asciidoc[]
include::10_onion_routing.asciidoc[]
include::11_gossip_channel_graph.asciidoc[]
include::12_path_finding.asciidoc[]
include::13_wire_protocol.asciidoc[]
include::14_encrypted_transport.asciidoc[]
include::15_payment_requests.asciidoc[]
include::16_security_privacy_ln.asciidoc[]
include::17_conclusion.asciidoc[]
and you convert using asciidoctor-pdf content.adoc
You could try using imagemagick:
magick *.jpg out.pdf

I have a lammps_file.data and I need to convert it to Gromacs files (gro and top) to run my simulations.
Does anyone know how to do this?
Another choice is to convert from lammps to charmm files (psf and pdb). Once I get the charmm files I can just use Topotools to get the gromacs files I need.
Thanks
Indeed, NOW I am trying to do the same myself.
So far, you can use intermol , this should work fine to convert LAMMPS data files to Gromacs files. Once you install intermol, and you ceate a path to the intermol converter, you can use a command like:
python2.7 $conv/convert.py --lmp_in topology.data --gromacs -v
CHECK the format of your data file, I still having problemst to convert it.
If you wish to create the psf file,
you would need VMD (google it), then open the tcl terminal and write :
topo readlammpsdata topology.data full
animate write psf topology.psf
The 1st line is for loading yur LAMMPS data file, if you are in the folder where
that files is located
2nd convert the data to psf CHARMM
Also, you could try this. In this paper, they provide a tood to conver
CHARMM topologies to gromacs here. Thus, you convert to psf, then to gro top.
I need to convert my SFF file to PDF, then i need verify the document. i.e SFF file and converted file.
For that, I think to convert SFF file to image file and PDF file to image file.
Then comparing the both file using image processing.
To do this method:
Im searching for a program to convert SFF to BMP
Does anyone know such a program or has another idea how to do the job?
Thank you in advance...
Looks like you need reaConvertor. It　appears to be a matured tool you can rely on. There is an online version of the tool here
I think:
https://github.com/Sonderstorch/sfftools
will do what you need (convert sff -> tiff/jpeg/..) and then you can use imageMagic (for example) to go to PDF.
Clearly not a current well used image format, however if you have legacy.sff Structured Fax Format, they are similar (not exactly identical) to a Monochrome G4 format.
By far the simplest programmable method to convert is using IrfanView which can Read Modify and Resave as other formats in batches.
Out put can be any other modern image type including Mono.BMP, G4.fax or as PDF (with or without GhostScript)
I have a pretty big .kml file (it is the property of my company, and I can legally use it), what I want to import into an .osm file, downloaded from download.geofabrik.de. I can open this .osm map in softwares, for completely offline usage, such as Marble.
My question is: can I somehow merge this kml and osm file, so when I open the merged file in Marble, the routes described by the kml are also visible? So basically, I want to merge a.kml with b.osm, resulting in c.osm, what I can use offline.
Is it possible? If yes, can you direct me in the right direction?
Any help is appreciated, thanks!
Some notes:
I have tried GPSBabel, it indicates that it can convert .kml to .osm. It generates a 65MB .osm file from my 12MB .kml, but when I open it in Marble, it does not show any routes, so it looks like a dead end. :/
The weird thing is, GPSBabel produced an input what QGIS could open. I merged the two .osm file with osmosis, but the problem is, the output is invalid, nothing can open it.
JOSM does not open the original .osm file, what is 1GB of size.
ps: I have posted this on help.openstreetmap.org as well, but for now, nobody could help me, so I am trying to get some answer here, maybe... Sorry for the "repost", and thanks for the help! :)
What you want to do is honestly the wrong way to go about it, but still possible.
The first step is to use ogr2osm with the command-line flags --positive-id, --add-version, --add-timestampand with--id 3000000000` (or some other number larger than the largest node ID in the file.
You will then have a .osm file that Osmosis or Osmconvert can merge with another file, in this case your downloaded software. In the case of osmosis, osmosis --read-xml internal.osm --sort --read-xml extract.osm --sort --merge --write-xml combined.osm (untested)
A more common way would be to download the shapefiles for the region from geofabrik then use ogr2ogr and similar tools to combine them with the .kml file in the output format of your choice.
Keep in mind that if you distribute this "derivative database" you have created, it has to be licensed under the ODbL. This does not apply if you're distributing it internally only.
I am currently working on a simple tower defense game for iOS (using objective-c), which contains several maps/levels. However, as it is now, each map consists of an image file and a .plist file with information. My question is: is there any way I could create a custom file type (for example, *.map) that contains both the image and the information from the plist?
If this is possible, how do I implement this?
Thanks in advance!
You have several good choices for that:
The simplest solution would be grouping the related files in subfolders: rather than having xyz.map file, you could have an xyz sub-folder, and reference the files out of it. You would not need to use any additional libraries for this, and you would be able to use the same name for all your image files and all your level files, because they would be in separate folders.
You can make a zip archive with the files that you would like to combine, and unzip it before use. Here is a link to an answer referencing a library to do it.
You can use a tar format - here is a list to an answer referencing a library that supports it. You would be able to use tar utility on OS-X to group images with plists on your workstation.
Finally, you can define a format of your own: store the length of the first file in the first four bytes, then store the content of the first file, and then the second. You would need to write a utility for combining the two files into one. This sounds like the hardest choice to implement.
Is there any way to just slap on a header and use a PS file as a PDF, assuming that the PS is very simple and do anything complicated?
I want to do this programmatically, not using ps2pdf.
Thanks.
You can certainly *try" "just slapping on a header" ... but I don't think you'll get too far :-)
Personally, I'd suggest ps2pdf is the best solution (for example, invoke it with ShellExec() or system()).
But if you want a programmatic solution, ps2pdf is just a wrapper around Ghostscript. Have you considered using the Ghostscript libraries?
You cannot wrap a PostScript file into a PDF file.
Although a PDF file looks similar to a PostScript file,
a PDF file must have a special structure, including a cross-reference
table at the end with file offsets to different parts of the PDF file.
To understand the PDF file format you can download the PDF Reference from:
http://partners.adobe.com/public/developer/en/pdf/PDFReference.pdf
If your software generates the PostScript file, maybe you can
extend it to write a PDF file too? It takes some time to understand
the PDF file format but it is not especially difficult if you are familiar with PostScript.
If this is too difficult, then use pdf2ps to do the hard work for you.
