# 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.
