As far as I can tell, note macros will not export to PDF. They just leave a white space in the PDF. When I looked at the HTML, they're using the regular panel class, not the confluence-information-macro-note class (or similar) as expected:
<div class="panel" style="background-color: #EAE6FF; border-color: #998DD9; border-width: 1px;">
<div class="panelContent" style="background-color: #EAE6FF;">
<p>content here</p>
</div>
</div>
Compare that to the HTML for the info macro:
<div class="confluence-information-macro confluence-information-macro-warning">
<span class="aui-icon aui-icon-small aui-iconfont-error confluence-information-macro-icon">
</span>
<div class="confluence-information-macro-body">
<p>content here</p>
</div>
</div>
I've tried using the suggestion from this page, but it doesn't seem to have any effect.
Are there any workarounds for this?
