It's easy to install with Darwin Ports (sudo port install htmldoc)
but it seems that htmldoc do not use the documents style sheet, at
least not in the DP version (and with the switches I used).
Prince seems to do, judging from Ben Jacksons blog: http://

I think because your transitions are right-aligned? The ^ character
is a “begin of line anchor”. So you would need to add \s+ after it
(for 1 or more whitespaces)

I changed/added to the command to generate a full HTML document, open
it in Safari, and then also convert it to PDF and open with Preview.
Change the output to HTML (or maybe discard).
It stores the resulting files in /tmp (using the basename of your
current document).
In practice you could use Safari to “Print to PDF”, but that's
tedious, if you do it a lot.
