Plone2Pdf config
Two configuration options are available for Plone2Pdf. You can access/change them in portal_properties/plone2pdf_properties
- http_proxy: default '' (i.e. not enabled)
Use proxy to retrieve external images or css example value: 'http://www.example.com:3128/' - use_pdf_layout_form: default False
After the pdf button is clicked, present a form showing different PDF layouting options. Another benefit of this is that the request to the pdf transformation is made using a POST (hence no web crawler should index it) example value: True
