Since v1.5 requires XWiki 10.2RC1

Installable with the Extension Manager

Description

Can be used as an output stream filter to produce a package containing:

  • Each page converted into a LaTeX file
  • Each attachment/image used in the exported pages
  • An index.tex file to group all exported documents in one

Index Template

The generation of the index.tex file can be customized using the same mechanism described in the Templates mechanism.

The template name is latex/Index.

Overriding Commands

The default Index template defines 3 LaTeX commands that you can override in latex/Preamble if you wish to customize them:

  • \xwikidate (sets the \date)
  • \xwikiauthor (sets the \author)
  • \xwikititle (sets the \title)

Override example in latex/Preamble:

\renewcommand{\xwikidate}{\date{\today \\ \vfill ~ \\    Text at bottom of page}}

Parameters

The filter support the following parameters:
