The template editor's Export Properties tab contains several options to further control the output for the generated export.
Within this section it is possible to define which export properties will be visible in the export dialogue (when selecting "Settings"). To ensure specific export properties remain unavailable in the export dialogue, simply enable the lock icon for the export property:
An overview of the available Export Properties is provided below:
Name
Description
Language & Time zone
Language - sets the language for the text used in placeholder content. For example, the Export date placeholder, when defined to print the month name in full text, will use this set language for the translation.
Time zone - Sets the time zone used in placeholder content, like dates.
Labels
Include/Exclude - define page labels in the template that correspond with page labels on your Confluence pages to include/exclude child pages from the exported page tree (learn more)
Content
Enable links to external websites - if checked, web links in the export will be clickable
Open links to external websites in a new tab - if checked, web links will be opened in a new browser tab
Enable links to Confluence - if checked, links to your Confluence site will be clickable
Export only the last published versions of the page - requires Comala Document Management, see our related documentation (Data Center Only)
Hide the workflow header and footer - requires Comala Document Management, see our related documentation (Data Center Only)
Attachments - if the option Embed referenced attachments is checked, the generated export will contain the attachments included on the exported pages
Macros
Show 'Table Of Content' macro output - if checked, the Confluence Table of Contents macro will be included in the export
Show 'Children' macro output - if checked, the Confluence Children Display macro (if added to the page) will be included in the export
Convert Office macros to file thumbnails - if enabled, "Office Excel", "Office Powerpoint" and "Office Word" macros will be replaced by thumbnail images of the corresponding files. Otherwise the macro output will be exported.
Captions
Use image captions and titles as figure captions - if checked, captions set on the Confluence page for an image will be defined as figure captions in the export
Figure caption position - if an image is assigned a caption using the Scroll Title macro, you can select whether to display that caption before or after the image
Table caption position - if a table is assigned a caption using the Scroll Title macro, you can select whether to display that caption before or after the table
Code block caption position - if a Code block macro is assigned a caption using the Scroll Title macro, you can select whether to display that caption before or after the Code block
Equation caption position - if an equation macro (ie. LaTex Math) is assigned a caption using the Scroll Title macro, you can select whether to display that caption before or after the equation
File options
Export filename - define placeholders and/or text for the filename to be used in the generated PDF. Selecting the + icon provides a selection of placeholders that can be used. If this field is empty, the filename will revert to the default. i.e. Document Title-Document Revision-Export date
HTML filenames - add placeholder and/or text to define the filenames for the individual HTML files for the generated export.
White space handling - define how white spaces are handled in the filenames for the generated HTML files. Users can either choose to keep the white space, replace the white space with an underscore or hyphen, or remove the white space completely.
Special characters in HTML filenames - define how special characters are handled in the filenames for the generated HTML files. Special characters can either be replaced with ASCII characters or preserved as non-ASCII characters.
Search Index
When Build Search Index is enabled, a full text search index is generated and included in the final HTML archive.
