Exporting to PDF & Markdown

Guidevera can export individual pages to PDF or Markdown format. Both export options are available to logged-in users with the Editor role or higher. Each format must be enabled separately in the application settings.

Exporting to Markdown

Click the Export as Markdown button in the page toolbar (if enabled). The page content is converted from HTML to Markdown and downloaded as a .md file. Headings, bold, italic, links, images, and tables are converted. Only active pages can be exported by non-Admins.

Exporting to PDF

Click the Export as PDF button in the page toolbar (if enabled). A PDF is generated server-side and downloaded. The PDF includes the page title, author details, creation and modification dates, and the full page content. External resource URLs are stripped from the content before PDF generation for security reasons. Only active pages can be exported by non-Admins.

Printing

If print is enabled (enablePrint), a print icon appears in the page toolbar. This opens a print-optimised view of the current page in a new browser tab.

Enabling export

PDF export is controlled by enablePdfExport, Markdown export by enableMarkdownExport, and printing by enablePrint in config/app.php. See Application Settings.
