Optimize links for printing - when enabled, a footer section is added to the exported document displaying the full URLs of all links on the page. Further customizations can be made to suffixes that are included for links to pages, figures and tables within the exported document.
Make document PDF/A-3 compliant - enabling this setting, creates a PDF/A (ISO-standardized) version of the PDF upon export. This file type is intended for archiving purposes and long-term preservation of electronic documents.
Image compression - define whether images are compressed in the export. Reducing the image quality (e.g. Low quality), increases the compression for exported images and will reduce the size of the exported file. As a result, images may appear distorted.
Bookmarks
PDF Bookmarks - PDF bookmarks will be added to the export for the selected heading level and all previous heading levels. e.g. Choosing Heading 3 will create bookmarks for heading levels 1, 2 and 3.
Expanded levels - choose how many bookmark heading levels are automatically expanded in the export. Bookmarks will be expanded up until the selected heading level
Bookmarks Panel - selecting this option will automatically display the bookmark panel in the PDF reader when the export is opened
Language
Select a language to be used for formatting the date placeholders - depends on the used date format.
PDF Metadata
Title/Author/Subject/Keywords- within the relevant fields you can either add custom text and/or placeholders to automatically include the relevant information within the metadata for the generated PDF export
