Manage PDF-templates

At Settings > Manage PDF templates the PDF templates are created and managed. PDF templates determine how generated PDF files look. They offer the possibility to adjust the style of the document, to enable or disable certain chapters and to add a logo.

When exporting a blueprint, it is possible to choose a PDF template. In the test manager environment, this can be done with every blueprint by going to the PDF tab and choosing the option 'Generate a new PDF file'.

When creating a course, a PDF template must also always be selected, which will be used when generating paper tests in the administration environment.

New PDF template

Click on 'Add PDF template' in the top right of the overview to create a new template. The image above shows the different parts that can be edited. These are explained below.
