Plugin Description
Build highly customizable PDF documents from any combination of pages and posts, or add a link to any page to download a PDF of that post.
Kalin’s PDF Creation Station will add two menus to your WordPress admin. One under tools and one under settings.
In the tools menu you will be able to build PDF (or .html and .txt) documents from any combination of pages and posts. Select any or all pages and posts from your site, then add a custom title page, end page and custom headers. Adjust font sizes, file names, or insert information such as timestamps, excerpts and urls through the use of shortcodes. Save your document as a template for future use or create your PDF, TXT or HTML documents. All created files will display in a convenient list for you to delete, download or link to.
In the settings menu you will be able to setup options for a link that can be automatically added to some or all pages and posts. This link will point to an automatically generated PDF version of that page. Most of the same customization options are available here that are available in the creation tool, like title page and font size, as well as the option to fully customize the link itself. On individual page/post edit pages you will be able to override the default link placement so you can show links on some pages and not on others. PDF files are saved to your server so they only need to be created once, reducing server load compared to other PDF generation plugins that create a new PDF every time the link is clicked. The PDF file is automatically deleted when a page or post is edited, so the PDF always matches the page.
