how to render a single chapter (just the chapter) using bookdown
hi,

i recently updated bookdown to the most recent version and am having trouble knitting individual chapters. in an earlier version, i was able to use a chapter as a "child" document and knit it using a separate "render\_preview.rmd" to create a single chapter in folder just for "previews." the fil…

is there another way to zip off a chapter with the new version of bookdown? alternatively, how would i revert to the previous version?

this is a pretty specific use case and don't know yet about. so i don't think you can "zip" the way you want

let me know if you can do it with this or if you need me to make the project clonable. you put the code i’ve given to layouts/\_default/\_markup/render-image.html and it executes for every image you have in your markdown. that’s what \_markup render-hooks are for. hi ulillillia,

try the pdfcreator

http://sourceforge.net/projects/pdfcreator/ [@sunlightworking](/u/sunlightworking) this is only a start but you could have fun using subd to model it, break the shape into 2 repeating ‘arms’ that then join together.

but yeah a pdf reader only lets you read pdfs or fill out pdf forms. a productivity suite is usually only things like word and excel microsoft office.

a pdf editor, i.e. adobe acrobat, lets you actually make pdfs from scratch, and do things like add in typable boxes so you can make forms people can fill out and print or save and send off. (like a job application or a medical waver or something) first of all, download the zip file and then unzip or extract the file. then you will see a pdf file. if you don't understand how to do that, then please check the below button.) A .sequ file contains an Action created by the Action Wizard. Such an Action can only be executed via the user interface in Adobe Acrobat Pro. There is no documented method to run an Action via any of the APIs published as part of the Acrobat SDK. What you can do is to deconstruct the Action and see if you can automate the individual processing steps via the API. If and how that would work depends on the processing steps in your Action, but also on the API you are using. Hi Uwe, You can make inside/outside strokes on non-closed paths using custom width profiles. Use thhe width tool (Shift+W) to make a stroke like this (hold alt to edit only one side of the stroke at a time): Then save it as a profile (bottom of the stroke panel). After that I think your path should be easy to make. Unfortunatley after many many years of asking for this, Illustrator still has not added this feature to text frame options.

The closest you can get is to draw a rectangle, click with the vertical type tool (But that will only allow you one character per line.)

You could do this with the align palette. You would need to select another element to align against (eg: a rectangle filled with none). You need to add an outline effect to the type, and in the align flyout menu turn ON use preview bounds.
