I was just wondering if there was a plug-in for Anki which would allow you to export your deck as a list of facts in pdf form.

For instance:

Tag-name:

Q:
A:

Q:

A:

Tag-name

Q:
A:

Q
A:

etc.

I was after this because I have started making notes on things other than Japanese and although I make great effort to have many back-ups of my files, it would be nice periodically to have a paper form I could print and keep with those subjects.

You can export it as an excel file. It shouldn't be too difficult doing some excel magic to get it into your desired format after that.

Yeah can also generate HTML output like so:

Code:

sqlite3 mydeck.anki "select question,answer from cards" |\
perl -ne 's/^(.*)\|(.*)$/<b>Q:<\/b> $1<br><b>A:<\/b> $2/; print' \
> output.html

Using a virtual PDF printer with your favorite browser should turn it into a PDF file.

Ah, ok thanks, is it a plug-in I need then to export to excel?

I'm sorry xaarg, but that went over my head, i'll try and get the excel export working first.

Excel can import the text files that Anki exports (File|Export...|Export format: Cards/Facts in tab-separated text file).
