Ability to customize the PDF output

We would like to be able to modify the format of the PDF conversion so that printouts of our articles look more clean and professional. This would include the ability to designate page breaks, page margins, and other size/spacing properties.

Hi Alyssa T, Thanks for your patience, we have introduced the feature in our recent release. We have added two tabs in the Export to PDF page (Export and Settings)
Export
Select the published content from your knowledge base such as specific project version, language, with a predefined setting to be exported as a PDF. You can also choose to secure the PDF with password protection.
Settings
You can create and save predefined settings for your future PDF exports. You can customize and modify most of the PDF file attributes (cover page, watermark, page orientation, fonts, TOC, etc.) to better suit your company’s branding or style guide.

Marshal Ebinezar: That's a nice feature! Thank you for implementing it.
But I think there should be more options to customize the pdf settings. It would be great if you follow the options of https://help.k15t.com/scroll-pdf-exporter/latest/server/design-custom-templates-165944374.html. There you can nearly edit all aspects of the layout in a user friendly way.
An alternative solution would be an "advanced settings" options where you could change the layout by CSS.

Marshal Ebinezar: This looks great. two things, you have the possibility to add a logo only by updating. Can we use a logo already in the Drive? Also, changing the color of the heading did not work, in the font settings, is this a bug? Also we would like to also print pages where there is a live page on the site, even while I am already working on a draft for next time. At the moment if my category has 7 pages live on the knowledge base, but someone is editing 2 of the pages to add new features, if we want to make PDF of the site, these pages will be missing. This is a problem
