[NMLUG] capturing snapshots of long HTML pages
I've been playing with PS while waiting for the brilliance of this list
to enlighten my darkness.
PS still chops us the page into page-sized-chunks, which will have to be
recombined into a single, monolithic image. Because of the nature of
HTML, the bottom of the page is (potentially) at a different place on
each page...
I'm looking at it, and I'm seeing that ImageMagick does not have an
auto-crop feature. I've never messed with the GIMP's scripting
abilities, but I'm seeing that using auto-crop could lead to it's own
set of complications (with the text at the seams being too close).
