--browserEndpoint                 Use a remote Chrome server with browserWSEndpoint

Hyphenation

HTML can be pre-processed with soft hyphens by the Hypher library.

Pass the abbreviation a language code (such as en-us or de) when calling the renderer. You can install languages beyond those included the package.json using npm.

pagedjs-cli ./path/to/index.html --hyphenate en-us --output

Development

Link and build the JS

npm install
npm link

To display the output in the browser window before printing, instead of outputting the file add the --debug flag.

pagedjs-cli ./path/to/index.html --debug

Testing

Install Mocha with npm install -g mocha

Run the tests from the library root with the mocha command

mocha
