Latex Transcripts

A project to generate PDF files from input caption files.

Dependencies

The project uses pdflatex, Python 3 and the webvtt-py Python 3 module. To install the webvtt-py module pip or pip3 should be used, repending on the Python 3 installation.

Usage

  1. Put the .srt and .vtt files to be converted into a directory. This could be the data/ directory or another directory.
  2. Start from the example data/captions.csv file and add rows for each .srt or .vtt file.
  3. Save the updated captions.csv file in the same directory as the .srt and .vtt files.
  4. Use python3 to run the file python/transcripts.py.
  5. Use the file dialogue window and select the updated captions.csv file.

The program will then convert each .srt or .vtt file to a PDF file. The pdflatex command takes a few seconds to run. Therefore, it may take a few minutes to process several caption files.
