New to Emacs. This may be my introduction to it.

In non-interactive mode, via bash script, I would like to perform text replacement in a Open Document text file and then save it as PDF. As alternative save ODT as HTML first and then perform the other steps.

Is it possible?

I have a bash script completing the process with HTML as input. But how LibreOffice handles the conversion from ODT is tricky. Sometimes adds unnecessary tags. Also saving HTML to PDF requires some tuning because, as
far as I know, the format is not meant for paper publishing. Emacs may have better options.

Thanks for sharing.

You could bind C-x C-s to some pandoc script and store the file in any format you like.

there is already an org-mode => pdf conversion available

Thank you. I eventually solved with soffice. Good for the next occasion.

Hey, good to see some activity here. It seems there's us here? This
group used to be mirrored to the mailing list, right? I think it's not anymore, so it's totally dead. Why would people prefer a mailing list
over NNTP? Because of SPAM? I think the USENET is pretty much free of
SPAM now that Google Groups left.

Emacs webpage still declares about the mirroring. But mailing list web
archive says differently.

My short experience with USENET tells spam is not the issue. Lack of
moderation is. For me at least. DonrCOt know if this channel is different though.

Are you a member of the mailing list? Can you share this fact with
them? Thank you!
