PDF/PNG Astrological Chart Service

This form generates nice-looking astrological charts in PDF or PNG format. It's mostly a demonstration of my horoscop and starfont astrological typesetting packages for LaTeX, but the hope is that the charts will also be useful for general purposes even for non-users of horoscop. They compare favorably to those generated by the other free online chart systems I'm aware of. This system does not provide any interpretation; for that you'll have to look elsewhere. See the FAQ for instructions, privacy and other notices, and other information.

How to concatenate PDFs without pain

In my work I recently had a situation where I needed to concatenate several PDF files into one big PDF file.  That turns out to be a much harder problem than it sounds, and the Web isn't as helpful in solving it as should be the case.  Here's a summary of what I've discovered on the subject, so that someone else who wants to append PDF files on a real computer won't have to go through what I went through.  This page covers only software that will run under Linux and similar FLOSS environments.

Postscript and PDF tricks for free software users

My PDF concatenation page is quite popular, and I recently had occasion (while publishing a book through Lulu) to need a couple of other hard-to-find Postscript and PDF-related techniques, so I'm recording them here in case they're useful to others. (22 June 2006)
