Configuring the Export

Configuring the Export

You can configure the export on 4 tabs before you start the export by clicking on the 'Export' button.

Document Information

The Document Information tab lets you enter information about the exported document:

  • Title - Allows you to specify the title of the document that will be created by the export process.
  • Subtitle - Allows you to specify the subtitle of the document that will be created by the export process. If you do not need a subtitle, leave it empty.
  • Authors - Allows you to specify the authors as a comma-separated list.
    Each author has up to three parts: Honorific, first name, last name.
    The three parts need to be separated by an empty space, and surrounded by double-quotes, if they contain white spaces.
    Example: Dr. John Doe, Prof. Jane Doe, "Baby J." Doe
  • Version - Allows you to specify a version which is displayed in the document that will be created by the export process. The version can be completely arbitrary, for Scroll it is just a character.

Page Tree

This tab displays the tree of pages to be exported.

At present, you can only review the tree of pages to be exported. To change or reorder the page tree, use the standard Confluence functionality.

Formatting

Define the formatting options for this export.

  • Format - Allows you to specify the format of the export.
  • Theme - When you export PDF, you can select a theme here (PDF only).
  • Language - Set the language of the generated headings such as 'Table of Contents' of the document (PDF only). Although only English and German are fully supported currently, you may specify another language.
  • Paper size - Allows you to specify the paper size of the exported PDF (PDF only).
  • Create table of contents - Check, whether to render a table of contents (PDF only).
  • Ignore toc macros - Check this to let Scroll ignore all toc macros during export.
  • Ignore children macros - Check this to let Scroll ignore all children macros during export.

Advanced

The advance tab lets you define how to handle problems with unknown wiki markup.

  • Checking - By default Scroll creates the export without displaying problems with unknown wiki markup. If you want to review problems with unknown wiki markup before export, set this to Strict.
  • Handling - Allows you to specify how Scroll handles unknown wiki markup. Available options:
    • Highlight - Highlight unknown wiki markup in the document. (Default)
    • Render as Plain Text - Render unknown wiki markup as plain text.
    • Remove - Remove unknown wiki markup from the exported file. (Not recommended)

    Is there a way to edit the header of the Document?

    It would also be nice to add a page break in front of every title.
