Re: [xwiki-users] [xwiki-devs] Exposing PDF Export Options

From what I see Multipage export already plans to have those export options, right. But my development is about exporting as PDF when you are on the actual page, not in multipage export feature. * Export ** Export as PDF *** PDF Export Options ** Export as RTF ** Export as HTML ** Export as XAR It is complementary.
