    • We collect Confluence feedback from various sources, and we evaluate what we've collected when planning our product roadmap. To understand how this piece of feedback will be reviewed, see our Implementation of New Features Policy.

      With PDF style sheets, one can add things like page numbers and fixed text. It would be desirable to have a mechanism to insert the date on which the PDF export operation occurred.

            I can't get this to work on Confluence 6.7.2. So frustrating.

            Hi all,

             

            I have tried the solution proposed by Gerard, but Confluence seems to not find the jsp file ??.

            My logs says

            2017-11-17 11:35:30,818 WARN [Long running task: PDF Space Export] [confluence.extra.flyingpdf.ConfluenceExportUserAgent] getImageResource Could not retrieve image resource /datescript.jsp during Confluence export

             

            The datescript.jsp is at root of confluence.

            Added in the footer of pdf export layout

            Print date: <img src="/datescript.jsp" width="85" height="10" />

             what's wrong ?

            Thanks for any help.

             

            Michael
