Hi - I found here on the forums how to include the pdf of one item found through a search on the search results page....... What I am wondering is if there is a way to create one pdf file that will show all of the articles found through a search? Thanks -Joanei

Hi
You can use the template operator for searching to reproduce the search result, and generate a PDF from the result. You'll need to have a dedicated template override to generate the PDF, and I suggest passing the search parameters as user parameters.

Hi again -- Is there any way I could get you to give me a bit more detailed description of how I should do this? I just can't seem to get my brain around it this afternoon.........thanks a million
guess I should add that I need to combine results from 5 different classes -each having its own pdf display override file
