<div dir="ltr">Hi Mark,<div><br></div><div>The main style issue I have with the PDF output (aside from the aforementioned publishing of unpublished components) is how it displays note titles at the folder or item level. Attached is a screenshot from the PDF output for one of our finding aids. The folder title here is "Economic Review Committee." The title for the scope and contents note is bold and I think a larger font than the title of the folder. I believe this emphasis looks confusing for the user, and I would like for the title of the note to be either less conspicuous than the folder title or not appear at all. If we could opt out of displaying the "Scope and Contents" title line at the folder level, since I think it's pretty apparent that this description relates to the folder listed immediately above it, it could shorten the finding aids quite a bit for those who choose to include folder or item level description. <div><br></div><div>Thanks for looking into this!</div><div><br></div><div>Helen</div></div></div><div class="gmail_extra"><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Thu, Jun 23, 2016 at 9:49 AM, Custer, Mark <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:mark.custer@yale.edu" target="_blank">mark.custer@yale.edu</a>></span> wrote:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex">

fixing how container labels display for version 1.5 (I don’t remember anyone reporting that before, but I’ll look to make see if it’s in the ASpace Jira). I think I can replicate those issues based on your description, but if I need any example data, I’ll

so couldn’t access the application anyway), and, at my current institution, we’ve only been live in ASpace for about a month. That said, as we start kicking the tires here, our team has been generating a running list of PDF issues/concerns in our local JIRA

out from our JIRA where they’ve been recorded by users other than myself, so I expect you might need to follow up with me for more clarity off list.<u></u><u></u></span></p>

Also, when exporting as PDF, search only works with text title. Can't search as MS.0545 for example.

information is presented in “Summary Information” in a confusing fashion. For example, the label reads “Mixed Materials [31151030059731] [box]:” and value reads “1.” This makes no sense to users.<u></u><u></u></span></p>
