Re: [xwiki-dev] Advanced PDF Generation (Templates, Toc,...)

Hi, I try to use XWiki as a CMS and communications platform for the student-reps at my university. XWiki seems to be perfect! We would just need one feature on top of it - a more sophisticated PDF export. We plan to collect all kinds of Information on our platform and do a lot of documentation - some of it also has to be available on paper. PDF Templates would also be great! Therefore I am also highliy interessted in aggregate PDF's with TOC (as Stephen Schaub). Plus there should be a non-geek way to achieve such PDF's. Perhaps like the "clippings"-feature on IHT.com where you mark all the articles you are interessted in and they all appear in the "clippings" dropdown right of the naviation bar. So here is how I imagine it works (for the user): 1) Mark your articles 2) Go to the "PDF Generation" page 3) (Optionally) bring the articles into your favorite order and choose the pdf template (Toc/No-Toc, 1 or 2 columns,...) 4) (Optionally) Save your selection for future use. 5) Click on generate Although I am neither a Java nor XWiki pro I got some XSLT experience and could help with the templates. Please tell me what you think an if there is any chance an advanced pdf generation will be introduced in the future. Or is there another (external) way to achieve this? Looking forward to reading your comments! Thanks, Sascha Oesterle. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- You receive this message as a subscriber of the xwiki-dev(a)objectweb.org mailing list.
