Usage of GenPDFWeasyPlugin

-- İsteUtopya - 06 May 2018

Hello Foswiki Support Team,

I have already installed "GenPDFWeasyPlugin" ( https://utopya.isteutopyaisg.com/bin/view/System/GenPDFWeasyPlugin ) for my foswiki. But I am unable to convert my pages to pdf file as intended by GenPDFWeasyPlugin.

Could you please review this support question and inform me about "how to get a pdf file" of an ordinary topic of my foswiki. For example we can try this topic:

https://utopya.isteutopyaisg.com/bin/view/Isteutopya/EgitimKatilimFormu

I will be very glad if you inform me about step by step "to do" s for getting pdf file of above mentioned topic.

Thanks in advance

We can find below plugin documentation about how to do that:

Get a PDF by adding contenttype=application/pdf to the view url like this:
%SCRIPTURL{"view"}/%WEB%/%TOPIC%?contenttype=application/pdf&cover=print

Optionally an url parameter outfile can be used to specifiy the target filename of the pdf being generated. If not specified explicitly it defaults to genpdf_%!TOPIC%.pdf
%SCRIPTURL{"view"}/%WEB%/%TOPIC%?contenttype=application/pdf&cover=print&outfile=myreport.pdf

According to above explanation could you please inform me what/where should I write to get the pdf file of my foswiki topic of " https://utopya.isteutopyaisg.com/bin/view/Isteutopya/EgitimKatilimFormu "

Maybe like your %SCRIPTURL{"view"} is missing a trailing % character. Should be
%SCRIPTURL{"view"}%
perhaps.

Try installing NatSkin: it comes with all knobs set already, as well as better print css.
