Is it possible to export the scout wiki to pdf so that I can read it on my tablet when I am offline?

The Eclipse Wiki is a MediaWiki instance (same engine as Wikipedia). I am not sure if any export is proposed on the Eclipse Wiki.

You can plug every tool you find for MediaWiki on the Eclipse Wiki. Maybe a tablet reader already exists.

I had a look at the Wikitext project (provided by the Eclipse Mylyn Docs project). The idea was to concatenate different pages into the Eclipse Help format (HTML + XML Table of content). I know there is a PDF conversion with Apache fop and guys from Obeo to export to LaTeX.
My work (a prototype for the time being) is hosted on GitHub.


What are the pages you are interested in?

If you could sketch what you are expecting (how the wiki pages should be concatenated with each other into a single document). This could help.

Thanks again for the info.

I'm interested in all pages on the scout wiki so that I can view them offline. I find the wiki very difficult to locate pages I am interested in, so I think a snapshot of everything would be required.

If you want an example of how export could work, have a look at how Atlassian confluence do it. Try this for an example (WSO2 ESB documentation):

1) Navigate to: http://docs.wso2.org/wiki/display/ESB470/Enterprise+Service+Bus+Documentation
2) On the top right, click Browse > Advanced
3) On the left, click PDF Export
