            Bug ID: 62592
           Summary: Predictable URL for "Download as PDF"
           Product: Wikimedia
           Version: wmf-deployment
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: Unprioritized
         Component: General/Unknown

Could you create predictable URLs for generating PDFs of Wikipedia articles?

The reason this would be helpful is that it would allow me to create a
collection of articles in Adobe Acrobat using the "Create PDF from Web Page"
feature in that software. That feature is able to work from a list of URLs to
create a single PDF file with multiple webpages in it. But I can't give Acrobat
such a list for Wikipedia's "Download as PDF" feature because there is (as far
as I know) no predictable URL that accesses that feature.

For example, for the article:
     http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Subject
the PDF URL could be something like:
     http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DownloadPDF/Subject

Another way to accomplish what I'm asking for could be to allow "Book creator"
to work from a provided list instead of requiring me to manually click on the
link for each article to be included.

Thank you.
