About the missing border: I forgot that there is this bug: http://jira.xwiki.org/browse/XWIKI-13163 "Border style is not displayed, when we specify it on the pdf.css"
the workaround described in the issue works well, even though it is quite a a bit of copy & paste; the result looks like: .box { background-color: #CCC; border-top-style:solid; border-bottom-style:solid; border-left-style:solid; border-right-style:solid; border-top-color:#444; border-bottom-color:#444; border-left-color:#444; border-right-color:#444; } p { text-indent:0; } > > Details about changing the rendering of the PDF are documented here: > > > http://platform.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/AdminGuide/Configuration#HCustomizingthePDFexportLook26Feel > > In your case to change the background color the easiest solution is probably > to attach a file named "pdf.css" to the page XWiki.DefaultSkin > with the contents: > > .box { > background-color: #CCCCCC; > } > > or whatever color you would like to have in print. > > I have to admit that I could not get a border around the box with a similar > CSS declaration; > also I could not fix the indentation of the text around the block; actually > it should not be indented ... > > Adding a separate > > p { > text-indent:0; > } > > to the pdf.css fixes that, but I am not sure if this does not has other side > effects > > hope it helps anyway > Clemens > >> Hi, >> >> i use the macro "code" to highlight code blocks in the text.
