PDF Export Styling

Kevin Parenteau July 17, 2022

I need some help with my PDF exports.  I have read through the documentation and can get some things to show on the exports, but struggling to find a key element in particular, but then also how to get them to show properly from a formatting sense.

Mainly I would like to have my logo on the upper right of each page header, document title in the middle with the SPACENAME dynamically populated.

First issue is I am trying to set the export options globally and use dynamic content (in particular the space name) so I can set something like (SPACENAME - Runbook Documentation) where SPACENAME is the name of each of my customers.  This would allow the global header option to apply to each space.

Second, I would like to create some kind of template shell I can use to create a title page for each space where I can essentially add the customer's logo, contact info, etc.  If possible, even pulling the data from a page within the space (since each page name within the space is the same like "Company Info"), that would be fantastic!

I have been trying to use Dreamweaver to create HTML code but it doesn't work as well as I would have hoped.  Wanting to leverage some tables, or columns or something to strategically place content, etc.  Is there another editor that I could use that might be more friendly for formatting visually, then export the code to Confluence?

Please advise...  Thanks in advance!

No thoughts on this?  I am having a hard time figuring out how to center things.  I am very capable in HTML, but many of the inline CSS tricks used on a web page are not working for this.  In particular with alignments.

I can get the document title and page numbers centered on the pages, but say for example on the header, I cannot figure out how to get a logo in the upper right corner, with "IT Runbook" in the center, and possibly the customer info on the upper left.

I also am having a hard time getting each page to break in the PDF so each page starts a new clean page.

Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.  Thank you in advance!
