Note Macros don't export to PDF

[Tom Seedorf]

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?

Hello rkc,

Can you clarify what you mean here? Do you want remove the Page History menu item for users have view access only? This can be achieved with the rather brute force method of using css to hide this element for all users. You can place the following bit of css in the Space Admind > Stylesheet

#action-view-history-link{  
  display: none;  
}

It looks like we have a request for something close to the functionality you are requesting.

https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/CONF-13247

Please go ahead and visit that issue. I will attach this post to the issue as well to further increase it's visibility. Please feel free to use the above as a stop gap until this functionality is rolled into our product.
