We developed a plugin which uses the excellent (but commercial) tool
Prince (https://princexml.com) and is made up of a jar file plus a
little bit of a Perl hack. This enables us to produce the cleanest, most
beautiful documents that we can and lets us run varied templates and our
own custom CSS. The TableOfContents plugin produces a linked TOC,
internal links in the doc still work (jumping to a different page in the
PDF) and external links will open the appropriate helper app. Embedded
images can be optimised for size and quality. PDF X-1a, X-3 and A-3b
profiles are all supported. Our plugin can specify different templates
to embed the wiki content into and will let you convert whole pages or a
tab at a time. Plugin is free even if Prince isn't! If you're
interested, let me know and I'll send it to you.

For the Pandoc fans - we were so impressed by the output from our wiki
into PDFs that I wrote a scripted system that generates PDFs from
markdown pages that are rendered into HTML via templates and Pandoc and
then converted to PDF via Prince. Nothing to do with JSPWiki but way
cooler than producing documents in MS-Word or InDesign!

Nope, I don't have any link other than as a happy customer with
PrinceXML but this guy
<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/H%C3%A5kon_Wium_Lie> does.
