Experience: 
Intermediate

The print module allows you to create different formats from your existing Drupal pages.

In this session, I will present the print module, and explain how to use it. Besides the easy to use abilities to create a printer-friendly version, or an e-mail or a PDF of any page in the site, the print module allows you to easily create PDF files by simply generating the HTML and passing it to the API, without so much concern on the details of the PDF generation library being used.

Intended audience: 

Developers and site builders.
