Can Doxygen create the HTML documentation as a single, very long file? I want something like the RTF output, but as HTML. The reason: I need my API published as a single, printable, document. Something that can be loaded into Word, converted to PDF, etc.

Thanks.

I don't think there's an option that will produce the output as a single HTML file, but the RTF output may be suitable if you need an editable output format (I haven't tried this myself so I don't know how well this works).

If you want good quality printable output, then Doxygen can output LaTeX format (set GENERATE_LATEX to YES in your doxygen configuration file). This can then be converted to PDF, although you'll need to install a LaTeX distribution such as MiKTeX.

Thanks, I thought I was missing something. PDF is ok, but I wanted an editable format.

LaTeX is editable, but you would need to learn the markup language. I don't know if this would be too high a barrier for you.
