Note: Still very much a work-in-progress.

If you're just looking for the releases, you can find them on the Releases page for this repository or on our website.

Prerequisites

You should have the following:

1. Python packages listed in requirements.txt.
2. (If exporting to PDF) xelatex in your PATH.
   • If your TeX distribution does not support automatically installing missing packages, you'll also need to install all the necessary TeX packages to compile Common/TeX/WorldEnd2_Common.tex.

Usage

Exporting to PDF

Once you have completed all the prerequisites, you can run Scripts/output_tex.py:

python ./Scripts/output_tex.py "./Volumes/Volume_03/" "./Output_v03/"

• The first argument ("./Volumes/Volume_03/") specifies the path to the directory containing the volume.
• The second argument ("./Output_v03/") is the location for the output file and any temporary working files.

Printing

If you want to generate the PDF for printing in a perfect-bound book, there are three related flags:

• -b (--bleed-size): Specify the bleed size.
• -g (--gutter-size): Specify the gutter size.
• -n (--no-cover): Do not include cover.

By default, the bleed size is 0 in, gutter size is 0 in, and cover is included.

For convenience, -p (--print-mode) is provided, which is short for -b 0.125in -g 0.15in -n.

It is possible to tweak the print options alongside --print-mode by appending them after. For example, -p -b 0in enables print mode without bleed. If you put the print options before print mode, they will be overwritten, but other arguments can be put before without consequence.

Exporting to EPUB

To export to EPUB, run Scripts/output_epub.py:

python ./Scripts/output_epub.py "./Volumes/Volume_03/" "./Output_v03/"

• The first argument ("./Volumes/Volume_03/") specifies the path to the directory containing the volume.
• The second argument ("./Output_v03/") is the location for the output file and any temporary working files.

Changes from Orlandri Translation

• Use Yen Press names
• Insert and chapter images are in English
• Minor edits to the text
• Follow the Yen Press format as closely as possible, including:
  • Indented paragraphs
  • Table of Contents (TOC)
  • PDF font matches that of physical volumes
  • Spacing matches Yen Press or differs by no more than 2 millimeters
  • No space after ellipses (…)
  • No space around em dashes (—)
  • Capitalization for stutters matches Yen Press (e.g., Wi-widow)
  • Contractions use closing apostrophes (e.g., move on ’em)
