Abstract

Web and print exist as two solitudes: printed web pages often disappoint and converting print documents into good web pages is hard. A wiki makes it easy for authors to create rich web content, but is little help if readers wish to print the results. Wikipublisher lets readers turn wiki pages or page collections into print, with a quality better than most word processing documents. This lowers the time and cost of creating online and print versions of the same content, with no loss of quality in either medium.
