But I see no screen addressing this issue. Maybe caty can tell us more about that? IMO when we want to export one page (most of the time) user should not see all those options. There should be 3 levels : - "Export as PDF" button that exports the page as usual (with toc and cover) - "PDF export options" that allows to select Cover, Toc, etc. - and a link to "Multipage Export" feature. Or maybe we will have one "Export" link from pages that bring to multipage export ? > Thanks > -Vincent > > > -- > > Thibaut > > > > > > On Fri, Jan 28, 2011 at 7:28 AM, Vincent Massol <[email protected]> > wrote: > > > >> Hi Thibaut, > >> > >> You work could probably be integrated as part of the Multipage export > >> feature. > >> See > http://incubator.myxwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Improvements/MultiExport > >> > >> Check for example the PDF export options on > >> > >> > http://incubator.myxwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Improvements/MultiExport2Proposal > >> > >> Thanks > >> -Vincent > >> > >> On Jan 27, 2011, at 11:47 PM, Thibaut Camberlin wrote: > >> > >>> Hi, > >>> > >>> I was writing a piece of code so that PDF export prints associated meta > >> data > >>> of a page.
