This would need to be done at the Plings end of things

Perhaps json.activity.php is the call we'd need

UPDATE DavidC dhodgson is working on the 'Plings Selecta' - which partly addresses this solution and others below. There is still work to be done tho. See: http://selecta.elasticeye.org.uk

Original Post
Could be a stand alone app, or a 'plugin'

Provide a list of plings to select from (may be using check boxes)

Perhaps have options to group, order

Provide theme options

Produce a print preview

Possibly look at integration with print service API's such as moo.com

Could be better I suspect!

One solution to implement would be creating some examples and templates via the Tabbloid API. This could take some data from a Plings feed and format it for use and printing.

The trick would be to then look at how this can be accessed by all

It's been suggested to me that:
http://cocoon.apache.org/

might be the solution to the data to paper part of this.

As I understand it Apache Cocoon uses Apache FOP as a module to print to PDF. Coccon itself is a web interface that can manipulate data sent to it (in various formats), and output it various formats.

Anyone had any experience with it?

Given we're looking to print date-based information in most cases - we may find it useful to look for code geared up to formatting iCal feeds and then using that...
