BInterest

Since, Last Two Days I was in search of the Plugin or Service which would convert BInterest Post into the PDF Files for my readers and Visitors, so that they can read them later or keep it for a further references,  In Accordance to the Reader interface for your blog, it would be nice if you have a service available on your blog, that Converts the Blog Post into the PDF files with a Click of Single Button.

Searching on the Google, Got my Many Options like PDF24, PDF Online, which would be a good Option for Some of the Blogs, but I had real difficulty in implementing them on the wordpress, as a normal bloggers and not the coder. All of this Idea of converting the Post on the Wordpress Blog into a PDF Files was generated from the Labnol Blog., where they have explained How to Put Convert to PDF Button in the Post.

But, I Felt Contutto PDF Plugin for the wordpress is one of the simple and easy to implement and use for all my readers, Coming on to the installation and using of the Best plugin for Converting Blog Post into PDF Files is as below :

The ContuttoPDF plugin is based on DOMPDF which requires PHP 5 and it needs several extensions to be activated in order to be able to run. Following are the extensions which need to be activated before installing ContuttoPDF:

1. XML extension
2. GD extension
3. PCRE extension
4. DOM extension
5. MBstring extension

No Need to know Technically what this extension means, they are supported by the latest Version of the Wordpress.

Download & Installation : WP Post to PDF : Contutto PDF Plugin

1. Download the ContuttoPDF plugin.
2. Unpack it with a bzip2 unpacking tool (e.g. 7zip).
3. Upload the folder pdf-themes to your wp-content/ directory.
4. Upload the folder contuttopdf to your wp-content/plugins/ directory.
5. Important: Change the permissions of the directory wp-content/plugins/contuttopdf/dompdf/lib/fonts, so that it is writable by the web server. [Note : Normally it is Already in the Writable Mode] No Need to Change.
6. Go to your Plugins page. In the description text for the ContuttoPDF plugin, click on “compatibility test”.
7. If all requirements are met and the generating of the demo page works, you can activate the plugin.
8. Now put a PDF button on your page with <?php contutto_pdfbutton(); ?> somewhere in your template. Instead of a button, you can also have a text, with something like <?php contutto_pdfbutton('This page as PDF'); ?>. You can apply CSS styling to the anchor via its id="pdfbutton".
9. Go to Dashboard – Themes – Contutto PDF Themes – Open and Close it., [This is needed to Set the Default Theme Else you would be Facing the Problem of Fatel Error : First Select the PDF Theme After you Hit the Button to Convert the Post in to PDF File ]
10. The Default Theme is Really very very bad, based on the Wordpress Classic Template.
11. You would be in need of some other theme which would be more simple but effective to the users of the Blog.
12. AverageCoder have uploaded his theme for all of us to use which is Nice and Simple and better then the default theme of the PDF Files, you can Download it Right Here
13. After you Download the Sytle Sheet, Use FTP Brower or Web FTP Brower to Edit the Style Sheet available in wp-content/plugins/contuttopdf/dompdf/ over right or edit it with thAverage Coder Sytle Sheet,
14. And U are Done., Enjoy
15. You can Change the Icon of the PDF Button, by replacing the PDF.png of your Choice (Should be 32 x32)
16. More Over, if you do not want Extra Items, Delete the PDF Theme Folder in the Plugin Directory and Not the WP content because this is the duplicate One.
