Default template to include icons for Print this page and download as PDF

As per thread title, several CMS’s (JOOMLA et al) have page icons for "Print this page" and "Download as PDF" and so on.

Is there an easy implementation of this for MODx ?

Many thanks in advance.

For "Print This Page" are several JavaScript solutions available, if you use Google. 456 Berea St had an interesting article recently.

For creating PDF files on the fly, your server needs to have the necessary PHP libraries installed. Here’s an article about how to do that.

Personally, I usually add a print CSS to my pages. That’s all I do, as I’m not a big fan of trying to implement functions in a webpage that actually are already provided by the application (browser).

..just checked my phpinfo,
the pdf libraries are installed.
But I’ve some problems with this tutorial.
