Thank you for your question, Josh. The feature you refer to has been disabled in K 1.6 and the option you refer to in the forum configuration settings will be removed.

There are other alternatives to creating PDF version of web pages. Most browsers these days have PDF-creation add-on functions. I suggest you use Google to search for those kinds of things.

sozzled meant that feature doesn't work in Joomla 1.6 because of there's no libraries installed to do that (feature was removed from Joomla).

Thanks for the reply. The reason I was looking for a PDF creation is because my site is made up of many categories and sub categories and the last level of categories has 10 topics. Since there is no PDF feature is there an easy way to load all 10 topics and reply's onto a new page in that specific category?

I was thinking a variation of the RSS feed might work but I can't get the icon to show up in subcategories, just main category and recent topics.

Any Suggestions on how I could get this?
The site is www.thesermonbuilder.com

Also thanks for the clarification Matias. I cam blame Joomla 1.6 not you guys for it not working...

Kunena 1.6.3

I've enabled PDF creation which works fine.

The only problem is that photos attached to the topic do not show in the PDF
This is not a problem as hosting the photo on my website allows the photo to show

The actual problem is the size of the photo in the PDF, it is much smaller than in the topic
I'm not sure where I should be looking to play at getting the photo to its orginal size

The PDF creation in Joomla is very basic. As I recall (I haven't used the function for a long while) there is no image representation in a Joomla-generated PDF function. Maybe someone else can confirm this?

Ahhh, I thought it was Kunena doing the PDF creation not Joomla. I'll head over to Joomla and see if I can find anything to help. I've tried the PhocaPDF but don't think it's working.

I have installed Kunena on 3 different website, and in each installation, even though I have the PDF option enabled in Kunena config, there is no PDF Icon on any of these forums.

I checked if the template was the problem by trying the default ones as well as custom ones, and in all instances the RSS feed icon is visible on the main page, but in the posts, its either no icon, or just the RSS feed icon.
