[SOLVED] PHP Documents

[textbox]

Not so much a PHP technical problem, but;

 

I have to do a write up containing all my code, and i would really like it if the code had the syntax highlighting you find in Dreamweaver, Notepad ++ and on here.  Any idea what software i can use to achieve this?

 

Ive tried MS Word, but to no avail!

 

Any ideas would be great!

 

Thanks

Nick

I don't understand. You already named software with syntax highlighting. Why not use Dreamweaver or Notepad ++?

Sorry, i need to present all my coding in a printed formed report.

 

There will be some extended writing etc.

 

I need to be able to write say a paragraph, then have an excerpt of coding to explain, i wish to have code highlighting when i explain this coding.

 

Obviously, Notepad ++ and Dreamweaver are not usable for this purpose.

 

Thanks

I don't think there is anything around that will do this specifically. One thing Ive done in the past was setup a wordpress blog with a syntax highlighting plugin, then you can use that to print.

Either take thorpe's advice, or to take a a screenshot of your code in Dreamwever/Notepad++ and copy 'n' paste it in to MS Word as an image.

Just create a PHP page with

<?php highlight_string( 'CODE HERE' ); ?>

 

When you want to put some highlighted code into your report in MS Word

just paste your code into the "CODE HERE" part, run the page and copy the text into MS Word.

Word will retain the formatting colors and voila you have syntax highlighted text in word.

Thanks for that Shogun.

However, it didnt work.

 

Again however, saving things as .phps does work as Word retains the syntax highlighting copied in.

 

Thanks everyone!
