Hi,

I counldn't find any info on it, so checking here: We use theme builder extensivly to style our space content.

Now we want to export the space to PDF and it seems that all styling we have done through Theme Builder is not taken into account in the PDF export.

Is there any options somewhere to have all the CSS styling info we put into Theme Builder (custom CSS) into the PDF Export facilities of Confluence as well?

If there's nothing out of the box, could it be possible to include the custom CSS StyleSheet we defined in Theme builder into the custom PDF Export StyleSheet that Confluence offers through a @import statement?

TIA,

P.

    I've not looked recently, however historically changing the PDF export was something you needed to do by altering your confluence install - IIRC it can't be done through a plugin ):

    If you go this route, then you are probably better off symbolically linking the custom PDF export style-sheet to somwhere web-accessbile and using @import in builder to pull it in.

    If you are using an MS based server I do not know if it is capable of symbolic links ):

      Check out the Scroll Wiki Exporter plugin - it has a customisable PDF export (and they are working on Word export too): http://www.k15t.com

        From their website i do not see what they offer that Confluence doesn't offer out of the box...

    Confluence > 3.0 allows you to add a custom PDF Export stylesheet.

    From your answer I conclude that Theme builder doesn't do something automatic in this area, too bad, but understandable.

    The custom CSS I have added to theme Builder: can't I access that through a url as a stylesheet resource somehow, for usage in the custom PDF stylesheet of Confluence using the @import statement?

    BTW: 4.0.2 release with builder-show bugfix still planned for mid this week?

      View the source of any page and look for the 'layout-resources.action', eg:

      http://www.adaptavist.com/plugins/builder/layout-resources.action?layoutId=CLEANSIDEBAR&key=Builder&resource=combinedcss

      Yes, we plan to release 4.0.2 final tomorrow.
