PDF exporting issues
Posted:Thu 05 of Mar, 2009 (16:51 UTC)I am having issues with the PDF export. My system uses the FCKEditor so I am not sure if that is the problem.
When I export a PDF, the data loses all formatting. Hard returns are represented by > and  appear where a new sentence begins and two spaces have been used. The result is something like this:
?'s are the npsb;'s.
Each page also includes the comments for the page. It would be nice to just be able to export the page and have a choice to include the comments or not. Also, the resulting PDF should open a new window, not appear in the same tab as my wiki (in Firefox, at least).
Those last two issues are secondary. My first issue is of my primary concern.

II. Objectives and Responsibilities>>The objective of the group is to develop requirements that will suit as many branches in the division as possible. The group will create documentation of these requirements which will then be used to develop the software. As the software will require data to be inserted by programmers from the respective branches, these requirements will also include a standard for inserting data into the system.> > >

Site is html using FCKeditor.
What do others use for downloading / printing their wiki books?

Posted:Mon 27 of Apr, 2009 (04:37 UTC)I have to admit to working the other way around. Where we need printable documentation it is created as a PDF and saved. The contents are then added separately if needed.
PDF export does need quite a bit of TLC but there are a few other jobs higher up my list of things to do :(
