PDF output
You can produce PDF versions of selected wiki content:
- For a single article:
- The "Download as PDF" link (currently broken) in the print/export area in the left navigation sidebar produces a nicely formatted PDF.
- the "Print as PDF" link in the toolbox area in the sidebar prints the current page(s). Its output is not clean, however, and the "Printable version" option in the print/export area gives a better (non-PDF) result.
- For all the pages in a category:
Set up a URL to invoke the output.
For example, to create a PDF of the contents of all the pages in the "Janus Sockets" category from the Category:Janus Sockets page (that is, from Category:Janus_Sockets):
- Edit the URL at the top of your browser page. Change
http://wiki.sirius-software.com/index.php/Category:Janus_Sockets
to this:http://wiki.sirius-software.com/index.php?title=Category:Janus_Sockets&action=pdfbook
- Press the Enter key to invoke the edited URL.
- Edit the URL at the top of your browser page. Change
- For a set of pages you designate:
- Select the "Special pages" link in the toolbox sidebar area, then in the "Page tools" section in that page, select the "PDF Export" link.
- Select the "Create a book" toolbox link, then select the articles you want to include in the generated PDF.
