Description

Offline Content Generator (OCG) has been superseded by Proton and Electron-PDFs.


The Offline Content Generator (OCG) service creates offline formats, such as PDF, ePub, ZIM, and even plaintext, from collections of mediawiki articles. Issues with the "Download as PDF" sidebar link can be filed here. (Homepage).

  • Tasks related to the in-wiki interface extension should be placed in Collection.
  • Tasks related to the server-side PDF renderer should be placed in OCG-PDFRenderer.
  • Tasks about which you don't know where they belong should be placed in OCG-General.

TheDJ closed T150917: Remove deprecated features from book creator UI as Declined.

The deprecated features were not removed. I have no idea if those options still work for the book version (i suspect so), but the as PDF rendering is no longer available for books (which was the impetus for this ticket) closing the ticket.
