Overview

This proposal aims to provide the capability to print a metadata record in PDF format. The PDF layout is simple (ie. similar to the default flat mode of the HTML output). It provides link to :

• the HTML page of the metadata record using ​http://localhost:8080/geonetwork-main?uuid=da165110-88fd-11da-a88f-000d939bc5d8
• the XML document using ​http://localhost:8080/geonetwork-main/srv/en/xml.metadata.get?uuid=da165110-88fd-11da-a88f-000d939bc5d8
• and links to download or WMS link when available.

A link is added to the metadata view page:

Proposal

PDF output is provided for all schemas:

• iso19139
• iso19115
• iso19110
• fgdc
• dublin-core

See attachments for examples.

To add this capability to a new schema:

• Create a metadata-{schemaId}-fop.xsl in the present directory of the schema
• Create a template called metadata-fop-{schemaId} which is used by layout-pdf.xsl

  <xsl:template name="metadata-fop-iso19139">
  

• Include this XSL in metadata-{schemaId}.xsl using

    <xsl:include href="metadata-iso19139-fop.xsl"/>
