[Archivesspace_Users_Group] Exporting EAD from AS?

[Steven Majewski]

This is the first I’ve looked at the PDF export option. 

I was impressed that it produced external links to the images in the digital objects. 

It would be nice if there was an option to include images or thumbnails inline in the PDF. 
( I don’t know how difficult that would be to add. )

Also the “^ Return to Table of Contents” links are unnecessary and distracting in the printed guide. 

Ahh… poking around the code it looks like this is handled by   ./stylesheets/as-ead-pdf.xsl 
so it looks like this is something we can customize fairly easily. Looking forward to trying this out.

I wanted to see if there were any changes in EAD export with the new version, but with the inclusion of PDF downloads, I am now unable to download an XML file. Export -- Download EADnow just defaults to fatestx_ead.pdf even when Print to PDF is not selected.
