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, nice output comes from following the directions in the MediaWiki "PDF Book" page to set up URL links to invoke the output.

    For example:

    [http://wiki.sirius-software.com/index.php?title=Category:Janus_Sockets&action=pdfbook]

  • 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. and "Download as PDF" that let you select one or more wiki pages and generate a PDF file from them.
