PDF Exporter access and page selection

Selecting Pages

The exporter displays a hierarchical page tree for the current space. Use it to select which pages to include in your export.

Selecting a single page:

  • Check the checkbox next to the page name

Selecting a page and all its children:

  • Check the parent page — all child pages are automatically included

Selecting specific pages from a hierarchy:

  • Expand a parent page and check individual children independently

Searching for pages:

  • Use the search bar at the top of the tree to filter by page title

Choosing a Template

Select a template from the dropdown in the sidebar. The template determines the visual style of your PDF — layout, fonts, header/footer, cover page, watermarks, and more.

If no custom templates have been created by your admin, the three built-in templates are available:

Template Use Case
Default General-purpose exports with page numbers
Report Formal reports with cover page and table of contents
Minimal Sharing content without any chrome

Exporting

Click Export to start generation. The app:

  1. Fetches all selected pages and their assets (images, attachments)
  2. Converts content to PDF using the selected template settings
  3. Packages the output

Single page: Downloads directly as a .pdf file.

Multiple pages: All PDFs are bundled into a .zip archive and downloaded automatically.

Hierarchical Exports

When exporting a page with children, the exported ZIP preserves the hierarchy:

export.zip
├── Parent Page.pdf
├── Child Page 1.pdf
├── Child Page 2.pdf
└── Grandchild Page.pdf

Parent-child relationships and internal links are maintained in the output where possible.

Asset Handling

Images and attachments embedded in Confluence pages are automatically fetched and included in the PDF. You do not need to manually download or re-embed assets.

Live Preview

Before downloading, use the Preview option to open a preview modal and verify the PDF output. This is useful for checking cover page appearance, template settings, and content layout before committing to a full export.
