Helmut,
I have created an 'Open files' entry.

I am still trying to decide on the best format for the CookBook. If I
use CutePDFWriter then I get an exact replica of the .odc version of the
CookBook as a .pdf file, however, hyperlinks don't work (I assume that
if you create a pdf file in some way other than printing you can get
hyperlinks (ne c'est pas?)).

If I use HtmlExporter then I do not get an exact replica of the .odc
file since the information in 'Rulers' is not passed to the .html file,
e.g. centering text, tab stops, page breaks are not carried through.
