I created this plugin to help my own group, and decided to make the plugin publicly available. You can choose the page size and orientation. You can use the column layout that we use, or I have added the nyintergroup format that meeting-guide made: https://github.com/meeting-guide/nyintergroup Eventually other formats will become available. Let me know if you have specific format requests. Source Code: https://github.com/cdtoews/12-step-meeting-pdf == Installation == This section describes how to install the plugin and get it working. 1. Have the '12 Step Meeting List' plugin installed already from here: https://wordpress.org/plugins/12-step-meeting-list/ 2. Upload the plugin files to the `/wp-content/plugins/12-step-meeting-pdf` directory, or install the plugin through the WordPress plugins screen directly. 3. Activate the plugin through the 'Plugins' screen in WordPress 4. Use the 'Meetings->PDF Generator' screen to configure & use the plugin == Frequently Asked Questions == = Can I print a PDF in portrait orientation on 11X16 paper? = Yes, in the version 0.1.1 custom paper sizes/orientations were added. = Can I include meetings on the printed list without having them on the website? = Yes, Any meetings you want included in the printed list, and not included in the website, just create the meeting as normal, and set the Visibility to private. = What do each of the values do in the plugin? = * Page Layout: This lets you choose between column and table formats * Page Width: self explanatory * Page Height: self explanatory * Font Size: The size of the font you want the meetings listed in. The day listings are a font size +2. * Margin: This is the margin around the edge of each page. * Header Text: (column layout only) This is text that will show up at the top of each page, not each column. So this sometimes doesn't look good to have this populated once you fold the list. * HTML before meetings: (column layout only) This is anything you want printed before the meetings. this section can end up being insde a fold once you fold up your meeting list. * HTML after meetings: (column layout only) This is anything you want printed after the meetings. This section can end up being the front of a folded meeting list. * **NOTE**: the HTML before and after meetings is rendered a div at a time, put all formatting inside your divs. A div will not be split across two columns * Column Count: (column layout only) How many columns you want printed, normally 3 or 4 * Column Padding: (column layout only) How much of a margin you want around EACH column. this can be helpful so the meeting text doesn't end up on a crease once the list is folded. * Starting Page Number: (table layout only) Let's you choose starting page number if you have other pages you will attach * Include Type Index: (table layout only) Let's you include type index at the end of pdf = How do I determine the best font size to fit all meetings on 2 pages = in version 0.1.6 there is a somewhat experimental feature that determines the optimal font size. The optimal font size is the size at which adding 0.1 to it would make a page greater than your desired page count. I use this to make a 2 page list, so I can print it double sided and use a single page. What it does: * takes the currently set font size and makes a pdf and sees how many pages it is * If the page count is equal to or less then the desired page count, it increases the font size a certain amount * If the page count is greater than the desired page count, it decreases the font size a certain amount * Once it increases and decreases it will find the largest font size that will fit on the desired page count * This can take 30-60 seconds since it is making multiple PDF's to check sizes * Once it determines the optimal font size, it sets that font size in your settings, and makes your PDF == Screenshots == 1.
