Hey Ludovic and all!

Could you explain the following to me.

Why is the following line of code used almost everywhere in the .vm files
used to export pdfs.
>>     $pdfdoc.use("XWiki.PDFClass")

Is it significant?


Also, I would like to create another class like the cover and the toc. For
instance, every document here has a last page with the company's data. So, I
would like to be able to enable and disable it through the URL, just like
the toc and cover. I've done something similiar with another parameter,
which I get using the $request and use it to perform some specific actions
in the .vm codes.

Has anyone worked with something similar?

I'm asking all those questions because I'm extremely newbie with XWiki (as
you all can see), hahaha, and I need to get this customized pdf export
working until friday...

Thank you in advance,

Wilson
