Suggested improvement: allow PDF template customizations that apply to single page exports

[Joel Wilhelm]

It would be vastly beneficial if editing the PDF export template was easy, and if it applied to single page exports, not just site exports.

Hi Joel,

Did you had a look here and here. You'll see instructions on how to customize the PDF style-sheet used when doing a page "Export to PDF".

I had looked at the first link, and it says:

Limitations

There are a few limitations to be aware of:

Changes to the PDF layout only apply to space exports, not to single page exports (via > Export to PDF).

[Herve Frydlender]

Indeed. Their is two ways to configure PDF export:

• PDF Layout : applies to space export only
• PDF Stylesheet : applies to both space & page export

Here is a sample configuration you can copy / paste:

@page {
/* Make the page portrait A4 */
size: 210mm 297mm;

/* Add page / pages in bottom center */
@bottom-center {
font-size: 12pt;
color: #A9A9A9; /* DarkGrey */
content: counter(page) " / " counter(pages);
}

/* Nothing bottom right */
@bottom-right {
}

/* Nothing bottom left */
@bottom-left {
}
}

/* Change first page */
@page:first {
/* Reserve space above */
margin-top: 150px;

/* Reserve space below */
margin-bottom: 100px;

/* Company logo top left*/
@top-left {
background-image: url('http://www.gravatar.com/avatar/9ee967af14a1a987eae3bc9f5d88facb?s=100');
background-repeat:no-repeat;
background-position:left center;
}

@bottom-center {
font-size: 6pt;
font-style: italic;
color: rgb(69,0,204);
content: "This document is the property of COMPANY. It shall not be copied and / or disclosed to third parties, in any form without COMPANY written permission.";
}

}

body,p,li {
font-size: 12pt;
font-weight: normal;
}

/* Smaller font size for tables and TOC */
th, tr, td, toc-item-body {
font-size: 10pt;
}

/* Avoid page break after table header and inside table row */
th { page-break-after:avoid; }
tr { page-break-inside:avoid; }

/* Add numbering to section headers h1 to h4 */
/* Reset counter */
body {counter-reset: h1}
h1 {counter-reset: h2}
h2 {counter-reset: h3}
h3 {counter-reset: h4}
/* No counter on specific H1 i.e. Content table */
h1.ncount:before {content: normal}
/* Increment counter & update content */
h1:before {counter-increment: h1; content: counter(h1) ". "}
h2:before {counter-increment: h2; content: counter(h1) "." counter(h2) ". "}
h3:before {counter-increment: h3; content: counter(h1) "." counter(h2) "." counter(h3) ". "}
h4:before {counter-increment: h4; content: counter(h1) "." counter(h2) "." counter(h3) "." counter(h4) ". "}

/* Page break before main sections, avoided after */
h1 {
font-size: 18pt;
page-break-before: always;
page-break-after: avoid;
color: rgb(0,54,160);
}

h2 {
font-size: 14pt;
page-break-after: avoid;
color: rgb(0,81,239);
}

h3 {
font-size: 12pt;
page-break-after: avoid;
}

h4 {
font-size: 12pt;
font-weight: normal;
page-break-after: avoid;
}
