Hi,
First allow me to say that I've been craving to find such an extension, thanks!
I'd like to customize my PDF template. So i copied paradoxpdf_layout.tpl to my_extension/design/templates. And I can download the PDF with /content/view/pdf/node_id. But each time i modify my template, i have to download the PDF again.
Is there ny any chance an URL where i can get an HTML view of the pdf layout, like /layout/set/print/ does ?
Thanks much!

hello Marjolaine,
During template development , just replace the last line in the paradoxpdf_layout.tpl
{paradoxpdf($paradoxpdf_params)}
by
{*paradoxpdf($paradoxpdf_params)*}
{$xhtml}
So the first line disables the pdf generation and the second line outputs the html to the browser. As an alternative to this, enable debug in paradoxpdf.ini then you will have html files stored in var/paradoxpdf directory
hope this will help you

Hello Mohamed,
Your change works very well, merci beaucoup!
I have one more question, if i may (maybe that should be another thread) :
Would you know a way to replace the path /content/view/pdf/node_id by something like /path/to/my/node_url_alias/pdf ? I would say Apache or URL Wildcards but i don't know how the association node_id / node_url is made…
Thanks for your kind help & extension!
M
