How to Generate PDF version of Documentation (using Scroll PDF Exporter Plugin)

To generate the PDF document, we currently use the Scroll PDF Exporter plugin for Confluence.

• Select " ... -> Export to PDF" on the Documentation homepage, e.g. DSpace 7.x Documentation
• Select Template: "Documentation", Export Scope "This page and its children"
• Click "Show Details"
• Modify "PDF Metadata"
  • Title: "DSpace 7.x Documentation"
  • Author: "DSpace Developer Team"
• Other default settings should be fine, but feel free to double check them.
• Click "Export" button
• Wait for 5-10 minutes while the PDF is generated. Give it a quick look through for formatting errors (larger errors may be highlighted in RED automatically by the Scroll PDF Exporter plugin, which generated this PDF)
• Once complete, rename to "DSpace-Manual.pdf" and upload to the Release in GitHub: https://github.com/DSpace/DSpace/releases
• Also add as a download link on the Documentation Homepage.
