Downloadable button on the main page

Post by Sitrakar »

Hi!
I'm creating an online help for my company. So I was tasked to create a tile\button on the front page to download a old version of the documentation but in PDF. Is it possible, with oxygen XML, to create this tile\button, which download directly the pdf, in the front page of the webhelp ?
I attached an example of the feature we want in the webhelp.
Best Regards,
Sitraka

Hi,

In our user-guide we have implemented this feature and a link to PDF output was inserted:

This can be achieved by configuring some transformation parameters as described here:

Hello,
Just a tiny question about this subject. Is the PDF always the same whatever the page of the WebHelp is?
In our project, the WebHelp hosts different SOP, my idea was to be able to deliver the PDF of each SOP, not one for all.
For example:
WebHelp.ditamap
SOP01.ditamap
SOP02.ditamap
The idea was when in one of the topic of the SOP02, to allow to download (only) the SOP02.pdf.
Is it possible?
Thank you,
ML
