PDF version code snippets truncated

[E3D3]

The pdf version, as provided via link http://lispcookbook.github.io/cl-cookbook/#download-in-epub, often shows code via screenshots of windows with scrollbars, that don't scroll in a pdf file, so part of the code is unreadable.

Here's an example:

sh*, you are right :S Large code examples are shown like this.

A first fix would be to break them with newlines in the .md sources. It seems that a 64 characters line is the max for the PDF.

Maybe are there options for the PDF generation…

As the PDF is long don't hesitate to report other occurrences.

I downloaded today a new pdf from https://lispcookbook.github.io/cl-cookbook/#download-in-epub and see that it still contains scrollbars with truncated text. See for example pdf-page 42. Some pdf pages even horizontally split text/characters, for example pdf page 672.

I'm sorry to tell that the pdf- and epub-versions are still mostly useless due to still truncated code. Being able to use the cookbook only when online is a big restriction for me.

[vindarel]

please help us find the remaining truncated snippets.

only when online

git clone ;)
