This is the result of my investigations concerning the PDF export. First, in a 2.7 wiki farm in url path mode, the "includechilds" parameter doesn't work except in the main wiki. This doesn't generate an error nor a warning, but the pdf file includes only the starting page. Other point, in a simple wiki (not a member of a farm), the includechilds parameter works fine but only the images of the starting page are included in the pdf. To be clear : the images included in the children pages don't appear in the generated pdf. Could someone confirm/reproduce theses 2 bugs ? I will create the jira issues. So, we tried to produce the document using an external tool HtmlDoc ( http://www.htmldoc.org) that converts html files in a pdf doc. First we have to develop a special skin because HtmlDoc doesn't support CSS, then the 1.8 release of HtmlDoc doesn't support UTF8, so the generated doc contains a lot of awful characters. Finally, it is not a good solution. Maxime 2011/1/12 Le Génie <[email protected]>
Hi Jörg,
Thank you for your advice about images. I'm just seeing that there is an existing issue in jira about this.
But my main problem is with the includechilds parameter. Do you succeed to produce an unique pdf with a set of pages ?

Hi Maxime,
I figured out, that images with attributes width or hight are not rendered into the PDF. Remove the attributes and try again.
e.g. [[image:your.png||height="480" width="640"]] should be changed to [[image:your.png]]
Best regards, Jörg

Hi XWikiers,
We have written a software specification (SRD) inside our wiki. This specification is a set of pages with graphics (as attached images) and mockups (using Balsamiq Mockups).
Now, we want to communicate easily this specification to our external partner and, of course, they can't access our wiki (intranet only). Our first idea was to produce a document (PDF). We try to use the PDF export but it seems that the inclusion of the children pages doesn't work. Other problem with PDF (with a unique page), the included images don't appear.
Just for info, we are using the last 2.7 release of XWiki.
So, do you have encountered the same need and how did you solve it ? Do XWord may help ? Other idea ? Thanks for your response.
