The old version is fine!
Topic on Talk:Reading/Web/PDF Functionality/Flow
We'd be very happy to leave the old version if we had the option. However, quoting the page:
"Our current PDF rendering service, the offline content generator, is no-longer maintainable. Simply put, it's breaking down. Originally created by a third party, it currently runs on outdated code which may introduce security vulnerabilities and other major issues in the future. If we're to have the PDF functionality, we unfortunately have to replace it, or we might suddenly find ourselves in a situation where we'd have to take it down without having planned to do so."
We're not doing this because we want to, we're doing it because we need to if we're to make sure we still have a PDF service.
Is there anything in particular you think the old version has that you're afraid we'll be missing that we should work hard to include?
